    In light of the cracked shell we recently saw posted, what is your method of long term care for the shell you are hoarding. Come on, you know you are hoarding. I’m not telling you how many pairs of unlined BB LHS I have 😂 I use Bick 4.

    Very nice colors on these. Who did the re-welting on the far right pair?

    Can anyone tell me where to get Alden brown boot laces? Not waxed. I just want the regular ones that come with the boots. TSM only lists the black ones on their website.

    I don’t have a rug or an Alden bag, so that is my typical backdrop!

    where are you wearing out the soles? Toes? Ball of foot? I wear mine out at the toes and heels, so I’ll do toe taps and new top lifts to extend the life. For ball of foot wear, you could add sole protectors. I didn’t like them at first, but got used to them.

    I am in agreement with you. I wear the unlined at TTS, but surprisingly I wear the lined 986 af a half size down. Seems like many others do the opposite.

    double leather sole! Not very flexible. If I break them in on the sidewalk, they will wear at the tip quite a bit. It’s low pile office carpet that is not slick. At home, I would slip.

    Brought these to the office this Saturday morning to break them in on carpet. I’m thinking of sending them to Steve for his real brass toe taps.
