    The Official Alden Thread for 2024 - Share Reviews, Sizing, Advice, and Photos.

    The issue is that retailers generally don’t have a “stock” shoe they make and the rare shell color also varies. So you’re kinda stuck getting offered stuff you’re not interested in a lot of the time. I’m on a few lists, I’ve been shown 2 boots and a plain toe blucher. Wait times were 3 years...

    Imo the rare shell loafers are one of the hardest to get because most retailers make boots instead. I’ve given up on getting a rare shell loafer (LHS or tassel) anytime soon and just enjoy my suede and c8 pairs.

    A few shots of all my Alden shoes. Getting some c8 tassel loafers in the mail on Friday. Very excited and hope the seconds flaw whatever it is isn’t too bad. Next on the list is some Ravello but that’s a couple of months away after a 4-5 year wait.

    Carmina Shoes - Definitive Thread (reviews, advice, sizing, etc...) - official thread.

    Sup guys, Any advice on sizing the XIM horsebit loafer? Carmina suggested 7.5 UK but want to see if anyone has any advice here. 8 EE/E US Brannock C&J 325 7.5 E UK - a tiny bit big - or maybe not big but some heel slip because the soles are pretty damn stiff. Meermin Hiro 7.5 G UK - pretty...
