Dammit Allen Edmonds. It’s almost May. This is no time to be tempting a monster splurge on a pair of wingtip boots.
Just added to their 91st anniversary sale, the Allen Edmonds Dalton is about as good as it gets for a wingtip boot.

Leathers available were either the very light walnut, or the deep and dark chocolate calf shades. Full in person review on those over here.
Not Bourbon, but the more red-leaning “chili” burnished calf.
Their new “bourbon” leather is probably the perfect, not too light/not too dark brown shade, but this chili option has some real character. Here’s a few pics of the chili leather on the now discontinued Fairfax wholecut: In the shadows it leans brown, but when the sun’s on them the red really jumps out.
