Inside info?
Anyway 2 for 250 is not for any shoes only certain ones, else I would have hoot 2 pairs of shell boots already. Lol

How do you get them shipped to Singapore? What do you guys normally do? Also been trying to find an applicator brush for my shoe polish. Any idea where to get locally?

Well the folks on SF happily listed out the sale timeline... 2 for 250 are only limited to calf close-outs. Shell are still on sale for 299 per pair. Good time to wack those shell boots for more than half price of first esp. since they're going to raise the prices across the board.

Use comgateway to ship, fast and quick (within 3-4 working days) but gotta pay around USD25-30 extra per pair on top of AE's sale price for their shipping.
Dauber brushes fling polish everywhere so just use cloth or fingers?
Horsehair brushes can be bought at Mustafa, Takashimaya or Hush Puppies

Which website and how should I order from? Thinking of hooting that walnut strand

 

[striker22]

Not a website. U have to call. I think different people have their respective favorite AE sales rep.

Which parts in US are you at?

 

[Egoistee]

Just went robinsons and saw some brand I nvr heard before, with reasonable pricing. Anyone has any experience with brands such as democrata or steptronic (I thjnk?)?

I normally wear Democrata for work.
They are reliable shoes. If u look carefully, their shoes are pretty well made (Stitched) and not like those MIC (glued). I work in quite rough condition and these can last me 1 yr. I don't dare to wear Ferragamo to work due to the nature of my work (Heavy Equipment office).

Tangs used to carry Democrata. But this yr i could from something nice.
I went Robinson and saw this brand, 1 shot grab 4 pieces (S$99/per) and run. Can last me 4 yrs!!!

Damn scared this brand no more in SG.

Robinson n all sells these nice Italian sounding brands. During sale, I grab one or two pairs. Alternate them with my more expensive shoes or if I'm going to site visits. Better than Pedro I feel.

[darkgarnezh]

Those are prediction based on last few yrs.
Same shoe diff size can have diff price last few times I saw.

2 for 250 not really for limited calf close out. It is like limited to limited calf close out on last yr sales. Have to request for list especially for 2 for 250 sale.

Cannot choose sales rep during busy time, u get one which is assign. On hold so long still want to wait? Lol

 

[striker22]

I just used to tell them what I want in advance before the sale and my SA will reserve for me. Now it doesn't work that way liao and I also moved on from AEs.

Could be, this was the post I was referencing: Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - Page 2517

Others can try their luck though

You can still get the Shoebank reps to reserve them if you managed to get the list 2 weeks before the sale. Vincenzo of Shoebank volunteered to reserve a pair of cordovan shell daltons for me just a week back. Decided not to shoot for it since my shoes cabinet is filled and I spent really too much on shoes this year...

Hi a noob question.. Do you guys simply wear your shoes to work or only change them at your office? The soles of these expensive won't be damaged from walking on all the gravel?
