I’ve had a great pair of AE boots for many years and recently had them sent away for a second recrafting. I received a message today that they could not recraft to their standards and are offering the following:
We’d like to offer you one pair of current Allen Edmonds calfskin shoes,(cordovan styles do not apply to this offer) with the full retail price not to exceed $495.
I have a thought to get a pair of loafers, which I do not own and never have, or to pick a newer version of a boot, probably brown.
I wanted to garner opinions about the pros and cons of loafers over boots and also specific styles of each that would be considered classic and multi use; meaning shoes that can be dressed up or down with chinos and jeans respectively.
Thx
