My Cigar PTBs arrived and they're probably a half size too big. Any recommendations on an insole?

I can confirm. I just spoke and initially was told that the best he can do is put me on the list while he gives first preference to those already on the list. I fortunately was already on their list and he just hadn't gotten to me yet during his calls. He took my order for the Ravello WT Boot. I would prefer all eyelets with a leather sole also, but I don't know if that opportunity will ever arise. At least when it is re-sole time I can change it up.

Sometimes these lists are crazy. I was put on it for the Ravello back around Christmas time in of course a very popular 8 or 8.5D size, received no call or email today.
I called them earlier today and they took down my name and number but would not allow me to order.
So either I was far down the list at where I was in January or I was never put on the list to begin with.
Its a double edged sword. I hate paying 6-8 months in advance for something but at the same point at least then I know its not a scramble when styles are finally confirmed.
I suspect just like every other order that someone will post tomorrow that they were able to get them, and 6 months down the line after the supposed list wait, I still will not.
Oh well, such is the Alden game.
An insole really wouldn't help with a length issue would it? I also recommend exchanging.
Welcome to a dangerous habit! Enjoy your 403's (or 405, not sure which model they are)... the Indy is the quintessential Alden boot, despite our obsession with wingtip, cap toes, plazas, etc...!Got my first Alden in the mail today from need supply. The fit is perfect i went with an 8.5 which is what i also wear in a redwing. I got the Original Indy Work Boot in brown seen http://needsupply.com/mens/shoes/boots/indy-work-boot.html. They look absolutely perfect. Couldn't be happier. And look forward to future Alden purchases.
