The Allen Edmonds Spring 2016 Shoe And Belt Collection By Erik Peterson – – Tom James Company
Posted by Erik Peterson – – Tom James Company on Thursday, February 25, 2016
Allen Edmonds gained much of its following after providing shoes to the US Army and US Navy during World War II, with many of the recipients of the shoes being loyal to the brand for the rest of their lives. Allen Edmonds began handcrafting Made in U.S.A. shoes in 1922 on the shores of Lake Michigan in Wisconsin. Today we continue this manufacturing tradition and offer the finest men’s dress and casual shoes available featuring classic American styling and fine craftsmanship.
Allen Edmonds is a moderately expensive brand of shoes that men typically wear for a very long time and repair rather than replace. The company offers recrafting services, rebuilding a pair of shoes for a fee, replacing soles and heels, creating a new cork base and strip, and reapplying the finish. The Horween Leather Company supplies leather shells for footwear to Allen Edmonds.
Shoe size is more than length. Width is just as important. We have big, small, narrow, wide and everything in between.
Because we are the manufacturer, we can handcraft shoes in varying sizes. Competitive shoe companies make their shoes overseas and to keep inventory low, they make only “gut” sizes (e.g., 10-12 medium) that supposedly fit everyone. As a result, most men wear shoes that are too long for their feet as they need the room to accommodate their foot width. Men who get fitted by a Master Fitter are surprised to learn they have never worn a proper fitting shoe.
Specifically, what sets Allen Edmonds apart?
From size 6 to 16 and narrow AAA to wide EEE, we craft over 100 sizes of shoes.
Proper fit is important for durability and comfort along with foot and back health.

With proper care, Allen Edmonds shoes can last for decades so you can stop buying throw-away shoes every year. Our Goodyear welted and handsewn shoes are made so well they are available for our legendary Recrafting® service where we rebuild the shoe from the bottom up to extend the life of your favorite shoes.
