^^ Mr. Chorizo, thanks and they are indeed from Alden NY. I walked in in June with the thought that there was no way they'd have a pair for me, and mirabile visu (or perhaps I should say Visa horribilis...), they had an 11E in stock. Made for a pretty easy decision.

NAMOR: thanks as well.

They have no 9.5's. I checked a few weeks ago.

So the Alden factory is back from vacation and ... they're confirming orders. Orders that include whiskey, ravello and cigar.

This doesn't mean that your favorite retailer has the shoes at the moment but it does mean that Alden has the shell and they are begining production. All is right in Aldenland (good thing too because they've apparently lost the Australian market).

You are keeping good track of my sizing smile.gif. Let me try them on side by side and form an opinion. I haven't worn either much. I'll post some thoughts shortly.

In case anyone's interested, I was at Alden SF a few days ago and they had a size 7D Ravello LWB in stock.  Last pair, in case someone fits into these puppies...

...and Sky Valet is stocking Whiskey PTBs, antique edging, in all sizes from 9D - 12D.  I already have Whiskey chukkas and monks, otherwise I'd be all over them.
