Jalisco Leather Derby

I’ve owned Allen Edmonds shoes for the past 40 years, and this shoe was an unexpected surprise. Of course the shoe fits perfectly like Allen Edmonds can only do. But the design was a modern take on a traditional product. I hope there is more to come!

I love that with this one shoe you finally branched out to be more relevant! The Cuban heel is what does it for me! But you lacked the essence of your brand by only offering it in one width. When I think of Allen Edmond, I think of the equity in a full range of sizing for all. As for the style of the shoe, would have preferred a plain derby over the moccasin adjacent split toe design. Also, yes you are quality brand, but the price point is beyond what is worth me. Keep investing and partnering with true designers and stylists to stay romantic and relevant. Think Ralph Lauren who has kept reinventing the Ivy/Preppy look over just the Brooks Brothers simplicity, two things can exist that the same time and still be timeless.

Really cool looking shoe, something new of something old. The heel really made it for me I enjoyed what Willy was aiming for ultimately it did not fit me the way I'd like no fault of the shoe or the brand. Wish AE had more working partnerships with other designers, keeping things fresh.
