Highly encourage buying Allen Edmonds via brick and mortar, if possible.

Here in DC, there are many ways to spend your dollar on dress and casual shoes. Consistently, Allen Edmonds provides the best service and classic selection. I had been buying them online and having to get my shoes recrafted at a higher rate than usual. Come to find out, I've been wearing the wrong size. I should be wearing a small and wider size.

I never considered myself a wide footer but it will make a tremendous difference. Anyway, they gave me voucher to have one of my old pair recrafted on the house even though it was my mistake and gave me 15% off a pair of shoes I bought this weekend for being a loyal customer. I've bought a duffle and tech bag from this location before.

Anyway, just wanted to share the experience that good service still matters on some things. I ended up walking out with two pairs, 5th Avenues (dante sole) and Boulders below.

Well now Allen Edmonds will show up in your Google advertisements and if you click, he gets paid. So there you go.

If you want to change it up, the Pentagon Mall location with Derrick is great. I went to Connecticut once and the guy was an a-hole. I never went back.

The dark browns wouldn't have come in until the end of the month. I settled for those. I don't think they're bad. The two toned are different and the GF isn't too high on them, but they look fine.

I'm going to wear them with shorts and run around Disney World.

Doubtful, I use incognito mode on TD so dumb shite doesn't pop up in my history.
