I have worn various quality dress shoes over the years and have circled back to Allen Edmonds. The AE Strand (Walnut) has styling and is comfortable once you break them in. A classic style that will stand the test of time. Highly recommend these. I will be purchasing these in the other two colors.
Ordered these online and was disappointed to find multiple flaws when they arrived in the mail. There is a gash in the platform of the shoe and several identifiable scars in the leather. Will be taking them to my local store to exchange for a pair that can be inspected before bringing them home.
