^^ Lots of nice boots at J. Gilbert, but they seem to have dispensed with ordering anything over 11. Unfortunate.

very unfortunate.
seeing this, as well as a lot of the J crew limited make-ups not being ordered above 11, tells me that a disturbing new trend is coming...

The trend that size 11+ doesn't sell well? I don't think this is new.

11+ may not sell as well as the other sizes. But they do sell. And retailers have, as far as I can tell, typically stocked a few pairs up to at least 12 and often 13. A "trend" towards not stocking any shoes over 11 would indeed be unfortunate.

FYI, I have 3 pair of Aldens, all 12 D going up on B&S soon.  One is Brooks Brothers color 8 LHS, two is a pair of black plain toe boots, calf, barrie, and last kudu indy's.  Very lightly used, 3-4 times.  PM if interested.  Thanks.

the beauty of the exotice colors is that the two shoes are identical in color. as they age the colors will get similiar
