Allen Edmonds

Speaking of formal dress shoes, Allen Edmonds is one of the most famous American shoe brands. Edmonds shoemakers make the shoes by hand from high-quality leathers. Some of their models were even worn by several American presidents (eg R. Reagan, B. Obama).

You will have to dig deep into your pocket for some of their models (the price can be as high as $1000). But you don’t buy the shoes only but also a status symbol and high-quality product that will last forever. Make sure you spend some time choosing the right size & width of the shoe, it is worth it!

Clarks

Clarks shoes are more affordable than Allen Edmonds. Yet, they look classy and elegant. The price for these shoes should not be over $250 mark. Furthermore, you can be proud of these shoes because they have almost 200-years tradition – the company was founded already in 1825. They produced more than 22 thousand of different styles for men, women, and children.

Frye

Another traditional, American manufacturer is without any doubt, Frye. Frye was founded in 1863 by a shoemaker from England, John A. Frye. Kind of a paradox, right?

The company offers high-quality leather shoes for men and women. Also other accessories like handbags, belts, etc. By the way, Frye works closely with Feeding America organization. They donate some percentage of their revenue to feed the people in need.

Thanks to the popularity of Nordstrom in the US, their site is full of customer reviews for each product. So you can easily avoid those models that don’t offer as much quality as you need. The Nordstrom offer also includes the above-mentioned Allen Edmonds or Clarks, and many other, less popular brands.

Undandy

Undandy shoes are especially imaginative. With their shoes, you will stand out of the crowd. We also like their tool where you can design your pair of shoes (like Rancourt & Co). First, you select the toe form, then you can add patterns, select the leather and laces color, etc. If you like details, you can also pay for your name engraving.
