http://www.colehaan.com/ is a site that I think has a sort of classy feel to it. The site doesn’t use a lot of colors for their site, but the images of shoes and people, are what gives the site, the additional colors to stand out. The images themselves are taken so beautifully, its just what the site need to stand out even more; the pictures combine the use of texture and minimalism that makes the boring black and white seem so refined and interesting. Everything is centered and placed in a module grid, and it’s because of that symmetry that attracted me to this site. It’s orderly and easy to navigate through; their use of white space really gives the site a mature feel.

http://www.allenedmonds.com/ is also quite similar to ColeHann except they use much darker colors to make their site interesting. The rich use of black and gold, like ColeHann makes the site and their product give off the impression of maturity and class. It’s easy to navigate through their site, and like the other site, it’s also placed centered and their information is in a module grid, which means that each information line up perfectly with each other, nothing is out of place, which gives the site a clean and organized look. I wouldn’t change anything about it.

If I had to choose which one I like better, I think I would go with AllenEdmonds only because I like the dark mature look, it goes with the male dress shoes that they have for their product. It’s a very clean site, and overall the simplicity is what I like in a website.
