ALLEN EDMONDS CELEBRATES AMERICAN CRAFTSMANSHIP WITH ITS BIGGEST SALES EVENT OF THE YEAR

This year marks the company’s celebration of 92 years as an American shoe manufacturer. While most companies have off-shored their entire production, Allen Edmonds remains committed to its Wisconsin factory. The company has created over 350 U.S. jobs in the last two years with over 300 of those jobs in its manufacturing facility on the Wisconsin shores of Lake Michigan. Across America Allen Edmonds continues to open stores and just opened its 51st U.S. retail location in Buckhead, Ga.

“The Rediscover America Event is the most important time of the year to us,” said Paul Grangaard, President and CEO of Allen Edmonds. “It gives us the opportunity to renew interest in American manufacturing, quality and service. It’s also our way to thank our loyal Allen Edmonds customers across the country.”

The 13 styles will be offered at 20–35 percent off and will include classic bestsellers, new styles, fall boots, lace-ups, slip-ons, leather sole and rubber sole styles. In addition, all Allen Edmonds branded shoes, belts, cedar products and accessories will be 14.92 percent off in honor of Columbus Day.

The Rediscover America Sales Event begins October 6 and runs through October 21 and will be offered in company-owned retail stores and at AllenEdmonds.com. For more information or to request images, please contact Paige Robinson at [email protected] or 312.222.7449.
