Thoughts on fourth dress shoe?

[dylanmacarthur]

I currently have:

AE Park Avenue (black)

AE Fifth Avenue (black)

AE Strand (walnut)

dude...get something outside of AE's...

I would say get a more casual pair of shoes, like double monks, chukka boots, or a brown blucher. Why did you get both the PA and FA in black? Burgundy also makes for a good casual and/or formal color.

A brown derby or something in burgundy.

If I only had three shoes, and each of them were different, I think the fourth shoe that I would get would be one to match one of the other three so that I would have a lest one matching pair. I have been known to wear mismatched shoes on occasions, but those were always accidents, a result of putting on shoes in a dark room so as not to disturb the Mrs.

A brown blucher seems to make the most sense. I definitely need a slightly more casual shoe, and I need a brown shoe as well....a decent brown blucher would fit the bill. Suggestions?

A bit out of my price range I think.

I am really tempted by the deal in B&S on Mcallisters.....but damnit I don't need such a similar shoe. The dilemmas of life.

Oh yeah BTW I got the FA and PA in black because I often have occasions that require a classic black cap toe two days in a row. I also found the FA NIB for $130.....I couldn't pass that up.

Alden Leisure Handsewn -- unlined from BB is amazing comfort

The Allen Edmonds Clifton is exactly what you want. It's on the 08 last.

The Macneil also works, but I'm guessing you like perforated cap toes (as I do).

Yeah I wish they made the Clifton in brown.....I'd snap it up in a heart beat.

You should check out the Walnut in person. I have a pair and I think it looks fantastic.

I've seen it - it's a great shoe, I just don't think I can justify another walnut shoe when I still lack a basic brown, ya know?

Ah hell, maybe I'll just get both. *checks bank account* .....maybe I won't.
