    Appreciate it guys. Seller made a nice offer, but he's another seller that doesn't respond to questions. I just can't buy from a seller if they cannot tell me how worn they are. I went with my tan buck McAllister today. They seem to work pretty good with light blues.

    Yes, they are indeed. Can anyone tell if the sole has the hammer recrafting symbol on this pair? It kind of looks like it does. The sole looks almost new and the upper looks like it's in good shape, but don't want to buy heavily pre-owned. https://www.ebay.com/itm/314271206981?i

    Gray cxl on a natural leather sole = great decision making by AE. Bartlett for me today. Can't seem to find a black edge dressing that is not frail. Comes off immediately from just light use.

    For @middlepP. I now think of him when I put these on. This is the brown Joseph Abboud version of the University. Ashley found these at the 2017 or 2018 Tent Sale. That was an exciting time to have someone explore the inventory abyss.

    You don't remember the 2020 suede Trunk Show? I was there when he ordered them. Feb. 2020, before the world went nuts.

    Cambridge for today. Not sure I love these bright edges. May revert back to dark brown again. Socks are also from AE.

    It's funny you mention dainite. Back in 2016, I bought a pair of these Clark St shoes with the same red sole. It was really painful to walk in, to the point that I sold them. I thought it was the Dainite, but I later learned it was because of the insole. I tried another pair of these later...

    Yes. I shed a tear as this is the first wear of my 1987 fuzzy McAllister shoes. I can kind of understand why the seller got rid of these. They are kind of bright and loud, and yellow-ish. They are also tricky to pair with socks. I feel I'm a bit of a joker today, but might as well be even...

    PSA: AE has a sale now on shoe trees -- 2 for $45. I just used $40 in rewards points (thank you AE).

    @donkeyhoatie , glad to see someone benefited from that inventory list. I quickly looked through it and this made me grin: As for me, I went with my dark chili University shoes. Chili might be the easiest color to pair for me. I wore these for 3 consecutive days last week when I was out of...

    I think you all are right. I remember seeing those yellow-ish tan Hamilton's on Ebay for $100 in my size brand new a year ago. Why did I pass? How dumb of me.

    THE 2024 ALLEN EDMONDS (AE) APPRECIATION THREAD

    I checked AE's site today to see if there's anything in my size on sale. They have a pair of these in gray for $250. Not bad. I noticed they now have "final sale" items, and this falls into that category. Does anyone have them in gray on here? I have a $50 Amex credit I can use until the...

    Hmm...If it's a new brand, I don't really know who's specializing in 2E loafers. You got me stumped.

    Well, if it's luxery, I would guess Grant Stone or Cheaney?
