I bough this shoe when I visited Charleston. I was lucky to get that olive green. It's very comfortable, fit exact size and was fast to break in. It goes super well with formals and semi formals. I get compliments every time I wear these. It's truly made for distinguished gentleman. Worth the price!!!

The length was great but there is one area on these shoes that just don't fit my husband's foot right. It rubs the top of his bunion. It is hard to find great styled and quality made shoes like Allen Edmonds. We will have to try another brand. We already tried two pairs of these but unfortunately we must return.

Shoe did not fit my foot. Just a little too big. I have returned them and am awaiting my refund to order the correct size.

I bought these Strand cap toes shoes in dark chili as dress shoes because of all the positive reviews on this site stressing the comfort level. I wore them a couple of times for dressy occasions, but decided to wear them more as casual shoes with jeans because of the great fit and comfort they provide. These are by far one of the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn right from the first wearing. They have sustained their share of scuffs and scrapes, but the overall worn patina is what makes them a standout with jeans. You can't go wrong with these shoes for comfort and style. Step out of the rut, and try these as casual shoes for their superb fit and comfort while adding a little extra to your casual style.

Love this pair of shoes. It's difficult finding a good quality and stylish shoe in a 5.5. This pair fit perfectly and is exactly what we hoped for in terms of quality and style. Looking forward to ordering another pair.

Love my Strands , I have less of these than the McAllisters but every bit as good a shoe. I also have the basketweave for summer. I order mine with the Dainite Rubber Sole. Love them

Great looking and comfortable shoe. I did notice threading (white) coming through near the toe in the pair I received.

Have these in dark brown and they are incredible. Great styling and very versatile. I wear these with slacks and my brown sports coats or with jeans. Very comfortable and with the legendary AE quality.

This is my second pair of Strand cap-toe oxfords, I now own this style in Walnut and in Black. I really love this shoe. For anyone trying to determine which size to buy: It took me a few tries to figure out my size, I almost always wear a size 10 D dress shoe (with the exception of a few 10 1/2 D's); in Allen Edmonds I'm between a 9 1/2 E and 10 E. I also feel Allen Edmonds dress shoes have a "break-in" period that one has to get through in order to tell whether or not you've gotten your correct size.

I have over a dozen Allen Edmonds shoes for dress and casual. I love the quality and durability that these classy shoes provide. I do have a complaint that has nothing to do with the quality or workmanship. Upon ordering my last pair of shoes, I noticed about a month later my credit card was charged again for the same pair when looking at my credit card statement. I then called customer support and after getting to the bottom of it, acknowledged that this was a "glitch" they had noticed on a few and were working through. Had I not called would this been caught? I have no idea, but knowing that my card had been run through a second time is a little disconcerting and worrisome since I'm not always on top of things and looking at individual transactions.

Husband and son’s favorite shoes. He wears them to work everyday. They last about 18 months walking on pavement etc 5 days a week. Are resolvable but tops. I believe, ready to go after that much wear. Sons wear for formal occasions and they are usually in sneakers and consider they really comfortable.

From the box the shoes were a perfect fit. I can wear them all day long and then go out at night and my feet never hurt, never sweat and are always comfortable.

My daughter is getting married, and I ordered several pairs of shoes knowing that I would probably only keep one. I sent these back only because, at a distance, they sort of duplicate a pair of wingtips I already own. Not an easy decision, because up close these shoes are works of art. Very careful and skillful workmanship. I am a pretty consistent 8.5 shoe size. The width and volume of the shoe felt good but there was a bit of heel slip, which tends to lessen as a shoe breaks in. As a recommendation, I would say my pair ran ever so slightly large. If you like the look of these, buy them. Killer shoes!!

Not true, I shower regularly, but the sentiment is there. Truly an amazing shoe. I "moved up" from wearing Johnston & Murphy's and I do not regret that decision. They are comfortable and extremely stylish. Favorite thing about these shoes is the sound of my heels hitting the tile floor in my office. It's a power move. We attorneys are all about image and these shoes have me steps ahead! Happy customer.

I have over 147 pairs of Allen Edmonds and love every pair. Many are designed by me using two toned leathers for the Strand model and the McAllister model. Great fit and comfortable.

I'm very happy with the quality, color and size. I called and spoke to a really nice customer service person who helped me ensure I ordered the right shoe and I got it when I wanted it to arrive. I'm very happy with my purchase.

Beautiful shoes, -- the cordovan in chili is magnificent. Mine ran very narrow. I have worn 9.5 D my whole adult life and own several AE shoes, all in 9.5D, including a Park Avenue, which I believe is on the same last. I had to exchange these for a 9.5E. Really surprised me. Like all AE shoes though, a great bargain and quality is unimpeachable.

This is my "Umteenth" pair of Allen Edmonds and I love this pair as much as my first, (which are probably somewhere in my closet)! The quality & workmanship are unmatched! The next time you need shoes "INVEST" in a pair of Allen Edmonds and you will be a customer for life!! Ralph Vines

I found these shoes extremely comfortable right out of the box. They feel broken in already. I plan to order another pair in a different color. Jeff S. Michigan
