This review is slightly biased by my exposure to another pair of similar AE shoes, the&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Allen-Edmonds-Men-s-Woodstock-Slip-On/dp/B007ELTP1S/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Allen Edmonds Men's Woodstock Slip-On</a>&nbsp;in Black and Chili.  The Nashua is the typical great AE product.  The full grain leather is visually appealing and there is the traditional calfskin interior lining that I now demand. The shoes polish very well and have a well-constructed appearance and feel to them, they are a quality product.  While the Woodstock can crossover from dress to casual, the Nashua is exclusively casual.  That may not be a big deal to most people since I believe that the Woodstock and Nashau have different target audiences.  I make the point simply for those people hoping to use one shoe for multiple environments.  My only con for the Nashua is what another reviewer considers as a pro.  For me, the rubber sole flexes too much.  I have other AE shoes with rubber soles and they do not flex nearly as much.  When I wear the Nashua, I feel like my feet are in the compromise of a rubber-soled sneaker and a rubber-soled fisherman shoe.  As with all shoes, your experience may very greatly.  These are a great pair of shoes, but you are best served to try them on before buying them.
