Took a little bit - but well worth the wait
PostedFebruary 15, 2013
Read the reviews and had to chime in. I'm a 20 year AE guy and know the line well. First name basis with the local store for years.
Bought the Norwich because i wanted a slip-on and the monk strap was conservative enough yet not boring. The first 2 weeks were horrible. My feet hurt and I was having buyers remorse. I wear an orthotic and my feet are a bit wide and they were hitting me on the outer edge.
I rubbed a little bit of shoe stretch on them and within an hour - they fit perfectly. It's 1 year later and they are super soft and have become my absolute favorite - go-to pair of shoes.
Let them break in - it's well worth the wait.

Good looking shoe for business or casual
PostedFebruary 15, 2013
I first bought a pair of these shoes in black. I like them so much that I returned to buy a pair in brown. I've never purchased the exact same shoe in two colors before, but these are great - easily bridging the gap between office and casual wear, just as good looking with a suit as with jeans. And I really like the quality of AE shoes - they last.

Wear them with anything
PostedFebruary 15, 2013
I purchased the Brown Burnished just a few months ago and they go with my suits and jeans. I had a friend ask me if I had two baby seals on my feet which he was trying to be funny but compliment the shoes at the same time. These shoes hands down are the all around go to shoe. If you really want to stand out in the crowd when so many others just toss on any$50- $99 dress shoes then pay the price for quality and style. You will not be disappointed.

Great looking shoe but a tight toe box
PostedFebruary 14, 2013
I have wanted a pair of monkstrap shoes for about 18 months and finally decided on the Norwich. I really do like the styling and quality of the shoe but find that the toe box is a bit tight. I did not notice this when trying them on, though I did try them on late in the day when my feet should be at their largest, but the toe box rubs the top on one of my toes in a weird way.
