Fifth Street - Cap-toe Lace-up Oxford Men's Dress Boots by Allen Edmonds
Chasing fads is not our thing, but we do listen to our fans in the men's clothing industry. When these trusted friends told us how they really wanted us to recreate the stylish dress boots worn by businessmen in the early part of the 20th century, we thought it was a perfect chance to use our expertise in traditional styling to appeal to ever-evolving modern sensibilities. Despite being a boot, the distinct perforations and prominent toe medallion on this the seven-eyelet balmoral capture the essence of the classic American dress shoe. Originally crafted for men whose daily trip to work meant dealing with cobblestone streets or the horse and buggy, this model's ankle-high upper provides a snug fits that translate perfectly to the adventures of the modern professional's commute. The long and narrow 65-Last design and Butyl leather sole means that it can be worn with a suit without anyone knowing you are actually wearing a boot. Some will feel it is the epitome of modern fashion while others will believe it to be the ultimate retro look. No matter what they think, you can't argue with the fact that the Fifth Street is sure to start a trend that will never go out of style.
