C A SUAL COLLECTION Even an Allen Edmonds Man has some downtime. He enjoys it in leisurely comfort with shoes from the Allen Edmonds Casual Collection. Rubber soles, casual leathers and comfort features abound in this versatile collection.
Dean Germeyer Dean Germeyer was already in his seat when an elderly woman named Elsie boarded the plane and sat down next to him. She looked very tired, as though she had had a difficult day. After settling in, Elsie commented on how shiny Mr. Germeyer’s Allen Edmonds shoes were. Soon, the two were deep in conversation and Elsie explained her day’s hardships. She had been visiting one of her daughters, and due to an airport attendant wheeling her to the wrong gate, had missed her flight home to Winnipeg. She had been stranded in a wheelchair at the airport the entire day, and now feared she would miss her connecting flight out of Chicago due to weather delays. In genuine AE Man style, Mr. Germeyer offered to wheel Elsie to her connecting flight’s gate, but unfortunately they arrived just minutes after the plane had departed. The airline would not provide Elsie with a hotel, so Mr. Germeyer invited Elsie to have dinner with him and his wife at their home. Elsie had never seen the city of Chicago or been in a high rise before, so it was a memorable experience for her. After dinner, Mr. Germeyer put Elsie up in a nearby hotel and arranged for a town car to pick her up and take her to the airport the next day. Elsie arrived home safe and sound, without a hitch.
