A Blake welted shoe is typically pretty lightweight and is not what professionals usually consider a dress shoe in the US.

Have very flat feet. Means no loafers or monks. Most manufacturers don't make nice shoes with removable inserts.

My width is an E. Fewer and fewer manufacturers make that width. Newer allen edmonds lines don't have them. 1000 mile boots, manganni. And others don't make them.

Oh, and I have a high instep. Makes them a challenge. Shoes such as park avenues don't fit because of it. Strikes out Balmoral shoes.

Good for them. It's still a damn nice shoe. And as a caveat there next line includes Goodyear welted shoes
