Size 7 shoes

[EnglishGent]

I'm stuck with size 7 feet and am looking for a nice pair without spending too much, if I can spend less than $200 I'll be happy. GVH has Drydens in my size but other than that I seem to be having trouble finding anything else. I live in Iowa so the selection is extremely limited and travel to somewhere bigger is not an option due to business commitments, so online is my only option.

$200 is pretty low for unused high-end shoes that are favored on SF, save for Allen Edmonds.

However, being size 7 really isn't that bad. Being small footed myself I can tell you that there is much less competition on SF and in general for your size. I would check eBay. Smaller sizes tend to stick around longer and sell for cheaper.

Thanks Stockwell. I figured I'd have to go above $200 if I want anything other than AE, but with child number three on the way the less I spend the better. Any suggestions in the $200 to $500 range?

You might want to check Herringshoes.co.uk in their sales and seconds section.

Lots of affordable priced Loakes and Churchs there (if you're ok with that)

You can get C&J from plal.com for roughly $350 brand new, great deal. Keep abreast of GVH for shoes in your size from RL. Great deals there, as they are made by C&J. Keep on top of sierratradingpost.com also.

Still, you'll find some good deals on eBay as well.

As a fellow size 7 that regularly looks on ebay and other etailers..let me just say you are out of luck for decent shoes in size 7.

Not many size 7s so you dont see alot of deals like you see for other sizes. Btw, I've got a pair of pradas in 7 in the FS section.

Try Bennie's in Atlanta...they might have some nice Grenson Masterpiece and Johnston and Murphy Handmade in your size at around $100-$200.

So I've found a potential pair at last. How would you rate these for $118 in the light brown.

If you have experience with AE and know they will fit and be comfortable, you should get them.
