From the Thomas Bird website - I'll put this in the category of I would never buy but at the same time as an LSU fan I'm tempted.

I have some black lace-up Bruno Magli’s... soft and comfy. Most of the other dress shoes are J&M or equivalent. 6-8 pair. Plus boots, loafers, sandals, etc.
I wear running shoes 90% of the time for work. So, unless we have an event, or I’m dressing up to go out, they just take up space and collect dust.

Allen Edmonds, 5 pair
3 wingtip lace ups, 2 brown 1 black
1 loafer
1 wingtip lace up boot
stick with the best brand, I know every time I need a new pair the shoe will fit the exact same. When they get worn, send them in, come back fresh and fit the exact same.

I’m more of a Johnston and Murphy guy. I like the Allens but I don’t see the need to drop $375+ every time I need a replacement.
AE runs major sales twice a year. My last pair of Carlyles cost $295. I purchased that pair so that I have something to wear when I send my old pair of Carlyles to be recrafted for the third time. They will come back looking nearly brand new, and it will only cost me $125.

How long does it take to have a back up?
What all do they do? Re-sole, buff out major scuffs? How about deeper cuts?

Speaking of, where do y’all get replacement laces for your shoes? I need some like this...

Amazon. Just look up waxed laces and get the color/length you want. They usually come in a 2 pack.

Found the Hanger Project...waxed round Sovereign grade. Just need to figure out length. I’ll get these back in if I take them out.

I have a few pairs of Allen Edmonds, but my black shoes are their Shreveport model, woven, and they've told me they won't recraft those when the sole wears out. I might look at a pair of Alden's then.
I also like the purple Thomas Birds a few posts up from this, and unlike that poster I would buy those and wear to a game if they were comfortable.
Edit: I see they're $460 in purple. Disregard.

Based on a quick search of my email, looks like their anniversary sale is in April and their Rediscover America sale is in October.

Thanks. I noticed they're having a sale right now also. A clearance sale. But there's really not much there I'm interested in

You’re welcome.
Every once and a while, something interesting will pop up on clearance, but I don’t hold my breath for it. The two sales I mentioned usually have 15%-20% reductions on their major classic styles.

I got the 32" and next time I buy, I'll go 30". They don't droop or look bad, but a little shorter would look cleaner

60cm is what I bought. Hopefully it’s not a slow boat from Europe.
