The gold standard
My husband has had a number of Allen Edmonds shoes and has tried just about every other brand, both more and less expensive as well (he wears suits to work everyday) and these are just the best out there. You have to break them in, but then they end up being super comfortable and last forever. A very good investment.

How did this pair pass QC?
These were purchased on ShoeBank, but not labeled as an F2. I feel like this pair should never have left the factory; right insole feels like there is a crease or something under the leather, not comfortable; serious sewing issues in both welts, missed the sewing groove by a large margin, sole protrudes on right outer heel and is not smoothly cut or finished

Great shoe
The 9D is a perfect fit for me (and true-to-size based on the allen edmonds printable size guide), and surprisingly comfortable. The walnut leather is beautiful and goes particularly well with blue (looks awesome with denim).

New Black Shoes
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I ordered for my husband who wanted to switch up to black shoes for work. Fit true to size. He likes them & the details on the cap toe.

Great looking design and craftsmanship
I’m still trying to allow time to break-in the shoes, they’re still a bit stiff. The fit is snug but comfortable. If they are a half size too small, that would be my fault. They are beautiful shoes.
Will be back next year

Love them!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sizing Advice:
Be aware that these run large in terms of length. I typically wear a size 12, but sizing down to an 11 provided the perfect fit.
Breaking Them In:
This is my first experience with leather soles, and I was pleasantly surprised by how easy the break-in process was. They felt comfortable much sooner than I anticipated.
Finish & Maintenance:
The color is fantastic. I’ve already applied a couple of coats of wax and am excited to see that deep shine develop over time.
Overall Thoughts:
I’m incredibly happy with this purchase and am already looking forward to next year's annual sale to pick up another pair!
Pros: Easy break-in, beautiful color, high-quality leather.
