- The last pair of Florsheim shoes I owned was over 20 years ago, and they were loafers, so I cannot make a fair comparison.

Can you set up a Survey monkey or Google survey? You'd probably get a lot more responses.

Hey all,
I'll try to keep this as short and sweet as possible. I'm doing a marketing assignment on a company of my choice, I chose Allen Edmonds. Part of the assignment is to conduct some research on the consumer market. Since I'm a student and about one in every hundred of my peers knows what Allen Edmonds is, let alone owns a pair, I figure why not ask SF! I would really appreciate any help so all you need to do is fill in a quick questionnaire below (only 6 brief multiple choice questions). Feel free to leave any questions blank if you're uncomfortable, or PM me if you do not want any other members to see your answers.
NOTE: For question number six, it sounds a bit open ended. I am asking you to consider as many possible factors (price, quality of construction, customer service, size availability, comfort, durability, etc) and consolidate them into an answer.
1. What is your age?
[ ] Under 18
[ X] 18-35
[ ] 35-54
[ ] 55+
2. How many pairs of Allen Edmonds do you own?
[ ] 0
[ ] 1-3
[ ] 4-6
[ ] 7-9
[ X] 10+
4. In your opinion, is the price of Allen Edmonds:
[ ] Too high
[ X] Acceptable
[ ] Too low
4. Overall, have you been satisfied with your Allen Edmonds?
[ X] Yes
[ ] No
5. How did you first hear about Allen Edmonds?
[X ] Word of mouth
[ ] Advertisement
[ ] Internet
[ ] Other (please specify)
6a. What is your overall perception of Allen Edmonds in comparison to Alden? (see note)
[ ] Better product
[ X] Similar product
[ ] Inferior product
6b. What is your overall perception of Allen Edmonds in comparison to Florsheim? (see note)

Florsheim is garbage, answers marked above.
