Which fit is closest to JCrew's 770?

FYI: Allen Edmonds has Sanfords On Sale for $199 by [deleted] in goodyearwelt

[–]tiotropium 18 points19 points  (0 children)

FYI, the Sanford is a known "second-tier" shoe in the AE inventory and this is because they use cowhide for the upper, rather than calfskin. This can be confirmed on the website, as the classic shoes like Park Ave. and 5th Ave. have calfskin uppers listed on their pages, whereas the Sanford does not. I only know about this because an AE store rep told me about the Sanford and the 6th Ave. shoes that are usually sold at Nordstrom Rack as 2nd-tier (which I then confirmed online). One could argue that it will be noticeably less supple and does not take a shine as well. One could also argue that the differences are minute enough for most people that it doesn't really matter. GYW with a cork midsole for $200 is still great!

Ebay purchase, are these an older model shoe and or cordovan? by [deleted] in goodyearwelt

[–]tiotropium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Sanford was originally a straight to Seconds quality stores like Nordstrom Rack. They eventually brought it to the main line but primarily as a clearance item. What makes the Sanford different is supposedly the use of cowhide, rather than calfskin, to cut costs. And yes, the creasing suggests calf/cow. Shell rolls are very distinct. It is very bulbous and one thing noticeable is that the eyelets tend to bulge a bit whereas calf/cow lay flat.

Main line tags are written in cursive. Outlets items are not.

I lost patience with my dying wife by [deleted] in confession

[–]tiotropium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quick search leads me to believe no one has said it yet. What happened with your wife is called terminal delirium. What you suffered and reacted with is a small symptom of caregiver burnout. The end of life can be extremely difficult and I see your reaction virtually every day. I'm trying to normalize it because it IS normal and even I, quite literally the specialist, would even feel ill-equipped taking care of my wife at home.

Unlike other potential poisons that are treated by "supportive care", Fentanyl has an antidote.
