Park Avenue with Combination Tap sole - Cap-toe Lace-up Oxford Men's Dress Shoes by Allen Edmonds

This shoe style is also available in additional colors with a Leather sole or our Custom sole option.

Whether it's the timeless architecture of New York's dramatic Chrysler Building or the boundless utility of a Swiss Army Knife, you just can't improve upon some ideas. For that same reason we celebrated the 30th Anniversary of the sleek design of our Park Avenue in 2010, continually one of Allen Edmonds' best sellers and the Inauguration Day footwear choice for Presidents Reagan, H.W. Bush, Clinton and G.W. Bush. Guaranteed to make a dramatic impression, this cap-toe balmoral combines a classic silhouette with unsurpassed craftsmanship to convey the serious presence necessary for anyone who leads by example and ensures the Park Avenue will perfectly suit all the most important moments in your life.

A leather sole has a special feel and traditional look that can't be beat. But in certain inclement weather situations or for guys whose jobs involve lots of time on their feet, it can be good to have the traction and stability that only a rubber sole can add. So you don't have to choose between these two options, we decided to fuse them into the tap sole, a leather sole with V-tread rubber inserts on the forefoot and heel. Polished yet practical for the ultimate presence and performance, the tap sole will have you walking tall, and that's no song and dance.

Park Avenue with Combination Tap Sole 4.6 5 491 491
Great shoe, wish they had narrower heels. I bought my first pair of AE's, a merlot Park Avenue about a month ago. I purchased them in 10B due to my narrow foot. The fit on the main part of my foot is quite good, however, as the heel is still a "b" it is a little wide for me. I would love to see AE offer a 10AB, where the sole is a B, but the heel an A. This would make the shoes fit me like a glove. I am sure some other people with excessively narrow heels would feel the same way. The merlot color is beautiful out of the box, but after a polish with the Premium AE merlot polish, they look even better!! I would definitely recommend the merlot color as it is incredibly versatile. May 10, 2013
Really nice but the rubber sole is peeling off after about 2 months.. I'm shocked because I have a pair of daltons that I'm in love with that I've beaten but are still holding together like a rock. Then I bought these park avenues, and I love em, but I've worn them maybe 5 times at most in the last 2 months. BOTH of them have the soles peeling off (the rubber part from I would guess the leather part). I'm so disappointed in this. These were bought new/retail from a store so I'm not sure how theyre breaking down so fast. The fit and comfort are seriously a dream, but I cant recommend this currently because I'm worried this might be a common thing. April 30, 2013
Formal brown footwear I purchased this shoe as a substitute of my formal black cap toes to wear with blue suits and sport coats and I am extremely satisfied with the whole experience. A little rough on the foot at the beginning, but after a few wears it feels and look really good. I am not 100% sure that it can be compared to the Loakes or Cheaneys or other medium to high level names of the UK shoe industry, but it is worth its price. April 30, 2013
Good shoe, great company I purchased my first two pairs of Allen Edmonds while on a visit to Indiana this December, one of which was a pair of Park Aves. I noticed when I got them home and had worn them a couple of times that the left shoe seemed to have a bulge in the area of the ball of my foot. The right shoe fit like a glove. I sent an email to AE customer service and they provided a pre-paid UPS shipping label for me to return the shoes and ultimately provided a replacement pair. Great customer service, but considering they did all of this for a person who lives and works outside of the US, it is amazing customer service. I am grateful that AE live up to their reputation for quality and will be customer for life, so long as they keep building great shoes in the USA. April 27, 2013
