Wow, didn't realize it might take that long. Is something like a #8 LWB in C usually more available?
Thanks
I would assume the #8 would be more available. My first try would be the official Alden stockists - Alden DC and SF. Then I'd look next the Alden Madison Ave or the Shoe Mart. In my experience if you're looking for something, don't rely on what's posted on the web. Instead, call the store. Alden SF is generally very helpful in my experience.
How much did you size up for the Leydon from you Barrie size?
I have the J Gilbert Color 8 in the captoe boot, but I have tried on the NST Tanker they have as well. It's very sleek, a great boot. I think the two are fairly similar though so It's really a personal choice. If you live in a rainy/snowy climate though I'd go for the J Gilbert as it has a commando sole if I recall.... I know my pair does...

I just received alden Captoe cordovan boots from Roden gray. But is this normal to not get dust bag ?
Sorry for the non-Alden tangent but thought of this post while wearing my chukkas today.Here's a question for you guys, and before I get flamed I'm really trying to understand, what's so great about chukkas? I've never seen one in person and I guess I just don't see what makes them desirable? Do they wear differently or something? Please enlighten me!
Cross post from Epaulet thread. Natural LWB on Leydon last. A pretty good pic for color representation.
