Interesting...I wonder if Alden is trying to put a kabosh on pre-orders to make their make ups a bit more desired by their, mostly impulse buying, customers. I feel like if you're an Alden guy you have to buy on impulse, otherwise you lose out. In otherwords, they're making there shoes more scarce...I wouldn't be surprised if the wait time increases again...because they know we'll wait.
Just as an FYI and for confirmation, new makeups are taking 18 months from order placement till delivery. Previously made models can take a few months shorter. This does not include #4, whiskey, ravello, and cigar, which depends on availability and order queue.
