Williams - Long Wingtip Lace-up Oxford Men's Dress Shoes by Allen Edmonds
Despite being a Harvard graduate, committed soldier, successful merchant and a representative of Connecticut at the Continental Congress, William Williams is best known in history classes for the astonishing simplicity of his name. As a fan of well-rounded individuals, we thought this dedicated American deserved a more fitting tribute, and crafted this premium dress shoe in his honor. Like Williams' name, the foundation of this 222-Last, five-eyelet blucher design is decidedly straightforward, and should fit the majority of feet extremely well. From there, to capture to the many talents that this great patriot brought to the table, we added some more complex elements, like a perforated long wingtip and toe medallion, both of which lend this dress shoe the depth of character you'll want for your most important business meetings. Even more impressive are the intricate light and dark highlights of the bi-color heel and wheeled edge sole, which create a striking contrast between the ultra-supple burnished double-aged leather body of the shoe and the artisan Independence leather sole. Capped off with an ultra-soft lambskin lining, brass nails on the heel and the Allen Edmonds brass nameplate on the sole, the Williams will not only change how people look at you, but also how you look at history.
