Endless Select Shoes Summer Sale – No Code needed
The extra 20% off comes off during checkout. Sale expires 7/4/11 UPDATE: So Amazon and Endless are run by the same company. Looks like they’re each doing a 20% off select sale right now and a lot of these shoes are going for less on Amazon. Some of them have the extra 20% taken off during checkout, some are just flat cheaper. Amazon’s free super-saver shipping takes longer, but it’s still free. Links will get you to the cheaper option….
This one is a select items sale, so forget browsing site wide and dumping 20% off any price. Even so, there’s some solid options to consider, but sizes are going unusually fast. Prices on a few favorites have dropped significantly since the last big Endless sale. No code necessary and the extra 20% off gets deducted during checkout.

Romano Martegani Medallion Lace Up – $197.98
(reg. $494.95)
For those that think a whole cut plain oxford is just too… plain. Not a true closed-lacing oxford, but plenty dressed up with the medallion toe. Made in Italy, sizes are a little sparse have become real sparse real quick.
Superga Cuto Classic – $51.96
(64.95)
Featured in Esquire and/or GQ more than a few times, the Superga Cuto is a nice alternative for guys who just don’t like Jack Purcells or PF Flyers. A little shorter in the toe but not as stumpy as some pics online make them look. Originally designed in Italy in… 1925. So yeah, a true classic. Update: Looks like they’re under $40 over at Overstock.com. Credit to John in the comments. Superga Photo Credit
Johnston & Murphy Brennan Nubuck Oxfords – $62.10
(reg. $129.95)
Credit to reader Michael who noticed these were going for extra cheap on Amazon. Ridiculously comfortable. Full review over here. Available in grey, navy, red, taupe, and white. Prices are a bit scattered depending on which color you’re after.
Gordon Rush Ashburn – $90.00
(reg. $225.00)
These have shown up on Endless before, and again, it’s fair to mention that they can be stiff. There’s a pair in my closet which I wear on occasion, and they’ve got a great shape with a basic no nonsense look to them. Won’t flip a a shoe aficionado’s skirt, but for guys who need a black basic lace-up, worth a look at $90.
A. Testoni Loafer – $158.40
(reg. $495.00)
Aside from the “other” benefits that come with having big feet… you also have the option to pick up a pair of these. Only size 11, 12, and 13 available. Perfect toe, and that wingtip stitch is somethin’.
Gordon Rush Montgomery Penny Loafer – $90.00
(reg. $225)
Meanwhile, back in the affordable for most range… these were going for $180 not that long ago. Now under $100. Nice slightly elongated toe. Made in China and as always with Gordon Rush, could be a little stiff at first.
Bass Amsterdam Chelsea Boot – $25.28
(reg. $79.00)
Cheapest Chelsea ever? Can’t remember the last time a seemingly decent looking shoe got under $50. Let alone $25 that ships free. This one doesn’t make sense. Even stranger, three people on Endless have rated them 4/5 stars (but on Amazon, someone says they smell of Paint Thinner). Got a pair on the way to the home offices for an in-person. Stay tuned for a hands on review. Risky at best for right now.
Florsheim Pellston Zip Boot – $63.95
(reg. $170.00)
Meanwhile, a safer play has to be this Florsheim side zip. Part of their Imperial line so they’re already a step up on the quality scale. Leather sole. Only available in black. Some wide sizes available too.
The Endless select items summer sale expires on the 7/4. UPDATE: Amazon too. What a cluster.
The Superga are on sale at overstock for $38.00 http://www.overstock.com/Clothing-Shoes/Superga-Unisex-2750-Classic-White-Canvas-Shoes/5839005/product.html
Anyone know how true to size the Gordon rush loafers are?
Should anyone be interested, the superga’s run a little large. My foot officially measures as a 12.5, on one of those metal gauge things, but a 12 (46) in the cotu fits fine, sans socks.
This differs from spring courts, which fit a size large; I can fit my feet into what j.crew calls an “11” (45) just fine.
The spring courts are my beater outside shoes, and look the part, having gone fishing several times (some fish blood on them, as well as having been in a downpour and some mud), while the superga’s are more my “nice” canvas kicks. The foot-ventilation system in the spring courts is nice (especially if they’re going to get wet…not sure how great they are for foot sweating, but definitely better than the grey new balances I used to wear), but they’re a little heavier than the superga’s, and sometimes the tongue tag bothers my foot a bit. Between the two, I’d get the superga, especially at that amazing price on overstock. Hell, I might get another pair, and a different color.
Note for anyone interested in the Marteganis: they run about a 1/2 large. I picked up a 10 during another amazon sale for about $160 and would have loved to get a 9.5, except the size wasn’t there. Such a nice shoe, I decided to solve the problem by adding an insole.
Those Florshiem Pellston’s look kinda fabulous
anybody think the florsheim boots are worth buying? no free returns if I buy through amazon, and no clues about sizing. I also don’t see any mention of them being in the imperial line on the product page…

Nice! Updated, credit given…
You could always buy through Endless for the free 2-day shipping and returns. Maybe get two sizes and send both back if there’s still a pair available (and you want them) in your size on Amazon? Here they be on Endless: http://www.endless.com/Florsheim-Pellston-Mens-Boot/dp/B003ELP502/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&cAsin=B003ELP4NU&fromPage=search&sr=1-1&qid=1309186373860&asins=B003ELP4NU&asinTitle=Florsheim%20Pellston%20Boot&contextTitle=search%20results&clientPageSize=100&node=241745011&sort=relevance-fs-rank&keywords=florsheim+pellston Per the imperial line question… they are, zoom in on the sole of the shoe and you’ll see the mark.
ah, didn’t see that on the sole. I’d kind of feel bad if I just used endless to try on a size and then turn around and order from amazon, but I guess I wouldn’t be the first to do that…
I see what you mean, and I almost always err on the side of not screwing the retailer (even though, many times, retailers aren’t so kind to their customers.) But in this case? Same company. Probably same warehouse. They just package it up differently. Y’know? And you are risking your size not being there on Amazon when you go to order the next pair. Because, well… maybe it won’t be there because it’ll be at your house.
