The 2023 Allen Edmonds (AE) Appreciation Thread

Is that the caper suede version?

Correct. Beautiful color.

It is that time a year again.

I took my mom to church today. Bourbon McAllisters.

Even then, I think it's likely a waste of money here. Especially as AE has tons of colours already.

Not really, the color spectrum on standard offerings has gradually been reduced. I suspect that moving forward you'll only be able to get RTW shoes in very standard colors and the "colorful" variations will be available through customization, like Carmina.

Has anyone ever got such lace gap closure on the 65 last?

Yes. I get close to full closure on some of my 65-lasted shoes.

We got some nice rain over the weekend, so the air is very clean. Traffic is also very light today. The start of a 3-day week with the Bartlett in walnut.

DIdn't they just add in a ton of colours in calf and suede like navy and another shade of burgundy?

Didn't suede get tumeric and bone and such?

One thing AE does is they like to offer nice colours.

Not really, they've been basically offering a reduced number of standard colors in calf and a special yearly color. Last year it was burgundy, this year blue. Suede is a bit more dynamic.

Still, calf color offering in the past was more ample.

Wish I had the denim shell. Both the denim and ultraviolet are stunning.
