Hey all, I have recently been thinking about shopping instead of just buying random crap because it looks cool(jeans that start falling apart after a few times wearing them) and have been upgrading my shoes lately. My old selection was a pair of Belvedere lizard skin shoes, which are one size to big(needed some dress shoes and wasnt thinking before ordering the same size as my skate shoes) and also a little too wide. Then a pair of also too large Nunn Bush(yeah I know...) loafers which though are too large they are decently comfortable. After finding out I am a size 14 in dress shoes instead of 15 I bought another pair of Nunn Bush 14Ds(Macallister model) before realizing that my feet are not a D width but rather a B. Those were also fairly comfortable but a little too wide.
Anyway NOW I recently bought a pair of used Allen Edmonds(Burgundy Shelton model) for a good price(or in my eyes it was, good condition for $60...?) and prior to that I ordered a pair of AE Ridgeways from Allen Edmonds but those are still in production. Soooo I am looking for a pair of 14B boots, dressier maybe a wingtip or just something edgy looking. Also a pair of loafers no tassels, maybe monk strap, something... unique looking but not too flashy. Do you guys know many brands that carry size 14B shoes/boots? I am having problems finding even 14D in boots. Allen Edmonds has a couple pairs but they are in the $400-700 range and I just cant afford that at the moment.
So having the AE Shelton and Ridgeway(in Black) would the AE Sanford be a good next addition for a black dress shoe? I found a pair used in good condition for under $100 so I could have them recrafted in a couple years if I really wanted them to look NEW...
Thanks for any help you can offer
Also I am looking to sell that pair of Belvederes which I got off amazon here http://www.amazon.com/Belvedere-Belevedere-Mens-Olivo-Oxford/dp/B000NNB0BC/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top what do you think I should try to get for them?
