I'm not a great fan of Allen Edmonds. I have a couple of pairs and they're not that comfortable. And not that cheap! For men's black shoes, invest in a pair of Guccis (not horsebit loafers, just regular lace ups) and look after them and you won't regret it.

I think AE just does that for the pics. The tied laces are hidden from view

Yeah OP you clearly don't know what open VS closed lacing is and therefore what an oxford is. It's labeled as an oxford, but it's not an oxford, unless AE is being hipster and redefining what an oxford is

I have a pair of those shoes but with more brogue. LAX version? They are extremely comfortable and are my favorite shoes accordingly. I've probably gotten 100? days of use and the bottoms are still going reasonably strong. No real difference to normal shoes in that respect. I suppose that the sole is proprietary to AE so if they stop making them they could not be rebuilt, but I'm not too worried. I might in fact buy the pair you linked since that's a nice price.

That is a blucher. Leather quality is not as good as their core lineup, such as the park ave. They should keep their lasts so you can recraft unless they close shop.

Couldn't find any reviews. Thanks fellas

Isn't that not an oxford? Looks like an open lacing system to me. Never tried it myself

but are they posh

Just looked up the terminology. Yes it seems to be contradictory. Thanks for the enlightenment A1!

Thanks KPMG1! And glad I can be of help with your shopping desires
