The hole in this argument is that you can't usually buy the shoe you want with the sole you want. More frequently than not the sole is my biggest problem with a shoe. Alden makes beautiful shoes that can kill you on wet surfaces or they just fall apart and you have to hope that they will help you out (which of course takes begging and months before you get help). Alden won't always be this popular. The trend setters promoting them will move on to other producers, and that is when old men like me may be their biggest/only customers. Unfortunately we may have moved on as well. Alden's good looking shoes may not always be enough. Just because you've been around a hundred years doesn't mean you'll get another hundred.
That all said I do hope as they deal with swelling demand caused by jcrew and others, that they figure out how to enhance customer service as well.
