I like these ^^^^ navy short wings a lot. Anyone who doesn't already have navy suede in his line-up should move on these.

I agree, I'm trying not to email him about these because I have the navy suede LWB from Leffot from last year, but these are beautiful. I assume they're on the barrie?

He pm'd me last week when he purchased them that I was first on the list should he want to sell. Unfortunately, for all you bring to this forum, I wouldnt be offended if they went to you. Your contribution to the Epaulet thread keeps me coming back everyday to see your fit pics. Bravo. 

Thanks man, appreciated. I guess you don't read MC Casual too much...lol. So Moo, make me second on your list! Those are beautiful Indy's.

Brown Pebble Long Wings (from Moulded)

Are these on crepe soles? Do you have a picture looking at the side? Curious how the toebox looks.

 

[Piffy]

If I had a pair of Indy boots with the regular sole but wanted a commando sole instead, is there a cobbler in the NYC area or anywhere in the USA that could do that for me ?

Anybody know where I could buy a pair of Indy 403 with a commando sole ?

Thanks

Look up B. Nelson in NYC. His shop is mentioned in this thread rather frequently. People have to gone to them for custom re-soling services.

Two very different pair of Aldens

Whiskey Indy from Alden DC - both of my cordovan boots are from Alden DC, service has been superb (extra shoelaces and a shoehorn included).



I love the Footbalance heel + double waterlock sole combo here



I'm gonna get some sunlight photos of these Indys soon...

These are a bit more dandyish... Suede and patent leather saddles from Leffot

I just emailed B Nelson about this a couple weeks ago and they can do basically whatever you want. Double leather, Vibram, Dainite, etc.

Has anyone noticed that The Shoe Mart is listing some makeups in #4 cordovan? They say they have to be shipped from the factory, but I don't think I've ever noticed these.

Not that I would benefit. They start at a hulking 8.5. Can't figure out who wears such gargantuan shoes . . .

 

[Dodo]

Hope someone will start a mega sell thread of Alden Indy and other Alden's models as there was time ago and as happens these days with AE!! Need to find good price to buy some shoes and boots!!
