I've became a allen edmonds shoe brand fan over the summer 2012. I admire the high quality ,reputation,built,design etc. In fact this my first allen edmonds pair of shoes,and then bought a larchmont wing tip,and a kenwood(i donate that shoes to the hurricane sandy victims) i then bought a pair of walden penny loafers. Now i will be getting my favorite shoe the fifth avenue oxfords,and that completes my collection. This shoe didn't take long to break in,it fits comfortable. Great shoe for what it is besides the  style of the shoe. Highly recommend!!!
