Excellent shoe and great customer service
PostedOctober 16, 2016
I've owned the Aston in Chili for over 6 years and find them to be very comfortable with the supplied insert or with an aftermarket one. In October of 2015 I bought a pair in the dark brown. They didn't fit as well as the chili pair and the right shoe tended to squeak with each step. I thought a few months of wear would help but finally called AE customer service. I sent the shoes back and then received a call from a woman in customer service who said that, indeed, there was a squeak and said that she would have a new pair sent to me. The new ones are perfect and fit just like my trusty older pair. The customer service is truly the best.
I've worn Allen Edmonds since the early 1970s and currently own 8 pairs.

Great shoe for orthotic wearers — but make sure you get the right size
PostedAugust 27, 2016
As someone who is forced to wear orthotic inserts but who really appreciates fine footwear, I have spent years searching for a shoe that could accommodate my needs. I thought I found when I discovered Allen Edmonds and these Ashtons. Alas, the salesman I purchased them from stubbornly insisted that I needed to buy a pair that were a size smaller than I typically wear, and then went on to talk me out of returning them, saying they just needed more time to “break in.” The only thing that broke was the skin on my toes.
I’ve never posted a negative review of a product before, but that experience was quite literally so painful that I felt compelled to in this case. In May, I posted a negative review of these shoes on this website and was promptly contacted by one of Allen Edmonds' excellent customer service specialists. She asked me to send my shoes back so that the shoe experts at AE could examine them. When they did, they agreed they were too small and offered to send me a larger pair.
Now that I have had a chance to wear these, I can honestly say these *are* the shoes I was looking for! If you need inserts but don't want to look like a geriatric, look no further — just make sure they fit!

Stands the test of time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought a pair of these about 15 years ago and I still wear them all the time. The style and quality has held up well and I still get compliments on them. I can dress them up with a suit just as easily as a pair of khakis. I even wore them to a daytime outdoor wedding. They are comfortable and work well with my orthotics. I just get new soles and heels and they keep going and going.

Fantastic Shoes
PostedJuly 13, 2016
This was my first pair of Allen Edmonds shoes. I've had them redrafted once and they are just as fabulous as they were on day 1. This is not - and will not be - the last pair of AE's.
Some folks back off the price tag, but these shoes are built to last a lifetime and never go out of style. EVERY time I wear my AE's I get compliments.
