I actually think I may have a phobia of not being able to wear them.
PostedJune 27, 2013
I like/love these shoes/boots so much I am afraid there will come a day when they will not be a part of my life. I want to hoard them.

Beautiful shoes, still haven't broken in.
PostedMay 19, 2013
These boots are gorgeous. Sizing was difficult--nothing in the store in my usual range felt immediately right--but the shoes were a gift so I kept trying until something worked. Now, after a few months they are very comfortable. My one complaint is that they still squeak like crazy and it is driving me crazy. The leather on the tongue rubs up against main part of the shoe and unless I lace them very loose, the squeaking is very obvious and, frankly, not great for the office. Still gets a "good" rating because they're so good-looking.

Beware of Long Break In Process
PostedMay 9, 2013
First off, the walnut calf is a beautiful color. I read previous reviews about the long break in process, so I was prepared. I was told that once the cork layer and leather upper mold to your foot the shoe will be more comfortable. However, after 5 months of wear the cork insole is still uncomfortable the upper is still rubbing my big toe. It could just be that this last does not work for my foot as I didnt have any of these problems with my other AE shoes.

Great shoes, careful of leather stretch & online sizing!

I found these wonderful shoes after a long long pilgrimage of online forums, reviews and visiting various stores in Melbourne.
I was nervous to spend so much, but I really wanted a dress boot that could become a staple of my fashion, would last a long time and suit all occasions. Reviews and photos indicated this was the boot!
I painstakingly measured my foot against the online sizing guide - my right foot was just on 11.5 and my left just under, so I ordered a size 12E, since I also wear orthotics. When the boots arrived, they fit quite well out of the box and I received some compliments on the first day of wearing them, which I was very pleased about. For the first few wears, they were quite sore, particularly the left, as the leather was breaking in. However, after about 4 wears, they magically became very comfortable and I could really start to appreciate the quality of the shoe and I was very happy with my purchase.
Overall, this is an almost perfect shoe and lives up to its high expectations.
However, I have worn them on about 10 occasions now and I find the leather is still stretching quite a bit, to the point where there are creases forming around the back of the shoe, which I am worried will cause damage to the shoe after a much shorter period than I had hoped to care for these shoes for. This can be seen in the attached image. So, I have some slight buyer's remorse that I didn't go for a size smaller (size 11) given the amount of stretch!
I couldnt find any AE shoes in Melbourne to try on before purchasing, so my advice for other shoppers is to definitely do whatever you can to try a pair on before ordering online, even better if it is a display model that has been worn a few times to reflect the amount of stretch. Overall, still an awesome boot, though I'm not sure if the other AE shoes (non-boots) would stretch the same.
If I can get my sizing right, I'll definitely be investing in more AE shoes in future.
