I now own several pair of Allen Edmonds shoes. I really like this boat shoe. I bought the British Tan colored and brown. Great colors, style and great sole. I had to put a felt tongue pad under the shoe tongue to alleviate any discomfort until they were fully broken in. The leather is thick and durable. It's not going to wear out any time soon. Really high quality and great craftsmanship! I wear a narrow width and Allen Edmonds make shoe with widths from AAA to EEE. I won't buy a shoe from any other company (Allen Edmonds) or any place else (Amazon).
