There is no more discount for the J.Crew Alden now.  30% OFF is very rare for Alden.

The J Crew tan bucks are some of my favorite shoes. Wear them with denim, chinos, seersucker, whatever.

Does anyone know of anywhere selling brown chromexcel barrie last chukkas in an 11.5? I've looked EVERYWHERE. I'm dying to get a pair but I can't find any online.

(I would love something identical to this LS makeup: http://leathersoulhawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/cxlc1.jpg)

If not, is there a way to darken natural chromexcel to get it a similar colour to the brown?

EDIT: in fact, if anyone can find me a NIB pair for sale, I'll hit you up on paypal with a 7% finders fee.

And this, plus a dwindling inventory, is why waiting on such a sale is risky.

Quite. But for those who can only afford calf as an indulgence, getting cordovan for the same price, assuming they are interested in said, is a nice surprise.

Got a question, I'm saving up for the cap toe Shell Cordovan boot, color #8. It might be about three months or so until I'm able to afford it, does this style have any risk of being discontinued any time soon or is it too popular of a style to be discontinued? These are quite honestly the nicest boots I've ever seen. Looking forward to my first pair of Alden's.

I noticed this too...SF must have optimized for mobile because it looks so much better on my iPhone now

Try accessing it via Tapatalk (app store).  Works really well for SF

I've traditionally used Tapatalk on iPhone, but now I may just access through Safari due to the improvement
