We are excited to share that Allen Edmonds is officially re-launching at J.Hilburn!

Based on our previous successful partnership and by popular demand from our top sellers, we have reinstated our working relationship with Allen Edmonds to offer you and your Clients a wider selection of new shoes.

We will continue to carry To Boot New York shoes in addition to the new assortment from Allen Edmonds, allowing you to offer a wider selection of shoes to your clients. 

Allen Edmonds has a great history of producing quality shoes that men love to wear. They will be fully supporting us with inventory, including wide sizes, and are willing to work with us for special order needs.

Please join Chief Creative Officer, Simon Kneen and Director of Merchandising, Nicole Coury along with the Allen Edmonds team for a webinar LIVE from their NYC Showroom to kick off J.Hilburn’s partnership with Allen Edmonds on January 6th at 10:00 AM CST.

How Do I Pre-Order the Lookbooks?
To place your pre-order, visit the Stylist Store. A new SKU has been added for purchase, (SS25Lookbook-5pack). Please place your pre-order by 1/10/25. We will not have extra copies on hand for future purchase, so be sure to anticipate all your spring selling needs and pre-order a large enough quantity to last you throughout the season.
