Strand Cap-Toe Oxford Dress Shoe
Another classic Allen Edmonds design is the Strand dress shoe. The Strand is Allen Edmonds CEO & President, Paul Grangaard's, favourite style!
The relationship began in the early 1980's when, a newly-minted banker eager for overseas experience, had the good fortune of being transferred to Frankfurt, Germany.
Given his age, inexperience and the language challenge inherent in the job, he was looking for a "credibility-enhancer." and some much-needed gravitas.
So, he bought his first pair of this distinctly American version of the classic senior executive's cap-toe brogue.
As a proud member of the Timeless Classics Collection, the Strand sets itself apart with its exquisite features. From its premium calfskin leather lining, to the perforated brogue styling, ordinary dress shoes are no match.
With its meticulously crafted eye-catching details, this is the kind of classy footwear that screams, "Look at me, I have style!"
