About the best shoe you can get
Excellent quality, as always expected from Allen Edmonds. A bit tight on the upper, but that is me.

Fancy Hiking Boots?
Shoe building is a lost art. Today, factories stamp out millions of shoes every year. All are produced with economy in mind. Lowest cost and grade possible, in order to maximize profits by selling in volume. With Allen Edmonds, you still get a shoe that is crafted with the wearer in mind.
These shoes are built with the intention of durability. You will own these shoes forever. Your job is to take care of the leather. In this case, suede. Before you wear them, apply a liberal coat of Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Spray-On Footwear Treatment, clean regularly with Nylon Suede Cleaning Brush and Suede and Nubuck Leather Cleaner Liquid, and reapply Nikwax as needed. Or use the product line that Allen Edmonds offers through it's website and retail stores.
Okay, so what you have here is a suede version of the Allen Edmonds Men's Malvern Boot. Leather lined for comfort. I often wear these without socks. Three eyelets that securely lace the shoe to the top of the foot, and just high enough to protect and support your ankles. Good-Year welted with a lug sole to handle any and every environment. This is the casual hiking boot version of a dress shoe. Reminiscent of the Men's Rocky Comfortable Waterproof High Gloss Dress Leather Chukka Boots and Bates® Bates(tm) Leather Padded Collar Chukkas police officers are first issued in the police academy. Engineered for pounding the beat for the next 25 years of your life. Don't be shy and only wear them with casual Friday khakis. I take these shoes outdoors.
They are made for adventure. Take them on the trail with you. Mine have gone camping, hiking, fishing, 4X4 rock crawling, as well as cross town treks on public transportation. This is an essential shoe for the urban warrior in places like New York, Seattle, and San Francisco where you do a lot of walking and may have to fight your way in and out of tough neighborhoods.

A Solid Winter Shoe
This shoe runs true-to-size in both length and width. Very comfortable, and the quality is typical of Allen Edmonds. Be aware that the suede has a very long nap to it. It looks much more rugged in real life than the photos would indicate. The photos on the Allen Edmonds website are much more accurate. The toe and heel also have some burnishing (which I didn't particularly care for), but it can easily be removed with a suede brush. Overall, a good shoe to kick around with in bad weather.
