I'm SO excited to announce details for the September 2019 Trunk Show!



We listened closely to feedback from the last show, and our team worked VERY hard to bring you what we think is one of the best shows we've ever constructed. I'm excited to hear your feedback!



On to the good stuff:





WHERE AND WHEN:



- The first leg of the event will go live Friday, 9/13/19 in San Francisco (Sutter St), LA (South Coast Plaza), and Chicago (Michigan Ave).

- The second leg of the event will go live Friday 9/20/19 in NY (Madison Ave), DC (City Center), and Orlando.

- These events will run from 6 PM until close of business.



** Although non “host” stores will not be having actual in store events or physical samples, you are absolutely are encouraged to reach out to your home stores to participate in this show! You can call in to any store, and you can shop in person with any store. Orders can be placed from September 13-September 23.**



- I will personally be attending the launch of the first leg in South Coast Plaza, and the second leg in NY Madison Ave, and I sincerely hope I am able to meet as many of you as possible! If you can clear your calendar that day, or if any of you are feeling up for a bit of a road trip, I would love to meet you!





COLORS AVAILABLE:



- Colors offered for this cordovan event will be Brown, Black, Burgundy, Navy, and Green.



- In addition to these offerings, for the first time ever, we are introducing CHILI CORDOVAN! This is a color created by Horween SPECIALLY for AE. Even more exciting– there are no limits to the amount of orders able to be placed for Chili cordovan! Sample Photos to follow shortly.
