Like a bomber jacket from WWII for your feet, these shoes are stylish, beyond well-made, and impressive as all get out. If you’re looking, chances are you know Allen Edmonds shoes are hand-made in Port Washington, WI, and are renown for their quality and style. These worn-but-well-loved shoes are ready for a new home since I’m not working an office job any more. Combination leather sole and lugged-rubber heel makes for solid yet classic footing. The footbed melds to your foot after a few wears. I’m lucky enough to own another pair of AE’s and they are the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn. As I said, I take VERY good care of my shoes, and these ship in the original box, with the original cotton bags. I believe these were a part of their tribute series, honoring those who served in WWII, and the red “V” stitching was for VE Day. Pick up this impressively crafted pair of American originals today!
