If you want to boil your meat, I think Mike likes the Instant Pot, which is on sale for $68 now as well.

5 quarts is really small for meat saunas

Didn't we reach consensus that the approved HC phrase was "Meat Jacuzzi"?

Yeah, soz, couldn't remember the word.

[Absorbine_Sr]

Mike does like the Instant Pot. Not a meat jacuzzi. Pressure cooker. Rice cooker. Slow cooker. Jack of all trades and very good at all of them.

Do you have any experience with their wide sizes? I wear a 4E and have had trouble finding decent dress shoes. After having the current pair resoled 3 times, I think it is time for a new pair. the widest the link you shared has 3E. Wonder if they run wider than usual. 

[Grand Enigma]

Talk to Jacob, oh wait.  Nevermind.

I cannot tell you the last time I wore something other than tennis shoes or boots.

[MexicanDragon]

I love my 3E. I do 4E with NB. They fit well for me when I got them, but after dropping some weight (and breaking them in) they are now a bit loose.

I have something built on the same last as these, not this exact shoe, but this is one that's been on my radar for a couple years.

Yeah, this is the reason I only ever buy shoes in person or from someplace that has zero problem with returns, like Zappos.  I have everything from a 9.5 wide to a 12 regular, with room for another complete set of toes.  I consider myself lucky if it comes in a wide at all, not so discerning between 3E and 4E.

I <3 Oxfords, though, so had to look.

I can't either. But for clinicals there are some doctors that don't like scrubs/running shoes and require a tie and what not.

If you are going to spend much time on your feet I would recommend something with a rubber sole.

CJ, you're a 10.5 3E (perhaps) in AE, right? That Fifth Avenue in Bourbon for 177$ is a shoe I <3 dearly. I have the Lexington in bourbon and it's great, and the same last as the Park Avenue and Fifth Avenue.

I actually prefer the Fifth Avenue unless going black; I find it more versatile. Also, don't get black. Also, bring @cetoole in on this convo.

If I can find something comfortable, I'd rather go for that. In the current shoes I have, which I have only worn for 2 hours at a time, I get the worst knee pain immediately after (I have super duper flat feet and am an extreme over pronator). I have red wing boots for hiking but they have a different insole that is rather stiff. Not nearly as much of arch support as the brooks I am wearing but it doesn't hurt me knees. The dress shoes I have are from high school - never needed to wear them for over a few hours so never bothered to buy different ones. 

Brent, I wear 10.5 4E in NB and Brooks. 

Zach do you have any suggestions for rubber soled shoes?

[MexicanDragon]

Don't ask Zach. AE makes rubber soled shoes in many of their designs. If you see "Dainite" in the listing, it's a rubber sole.

Honestly, Hush Puppies (yes, yes I know) sound like they would be a great fit for you. They look dressy enough, but are suitable for standing all day. Most traditional dress shoes are nothing more than slapping 1/4" pieces of hide to the bottom of your feet.

These specifically would be well suited for your needs.

P.S. Don't listen to Brent.

[MexicanDragon]

Those are atrocious.

Thankfully he isn't a Wall Street broker in need of impressing his friends.  He is looking for comfortable shoes that will fit the bill of "not sneakers"

[HemiSam]

LMAO....

If you want something that looks worse than what Reks would buy, check out Ecco (locally) to see if they have anything that fits. I'd call around to see if anyone had AE stuff that fit as well.

In a way, that's good for me, because I would have had to rush my decision between the SR and XR. Pretty sure I'm getting one of them. 

[shellylh]

By the way, there is a ER4 upgrade option on this page.

[Dreadhead]

I'm very interested in the upgrade...

[n_maher]

Song me up as curious as well even thought I'm not entirely sure where my ER4Ps are these days...

[Dusty Chalk]

So which one do I want, the ER4PT?  Or should I just get the HF5?
