    Those are the boots. I hope they are made of horween dublin or something similar, such a magnificent leather. It really does look like saddle leather.

    Man, I was done buying Aldens for about 6 months. Like everyone here I WANTED to buy more, but... my collection is more than big enough. So, I stopped placing new orders. Life was good, I was happy with my shoes, and didn't feel a yearning need to buy any additional pairs. But in the past...

    Speaking of loafers, anyone got any suggestions on Aberdeen sizing? For non-loafers, Barrie/TB size is 7 EEE / 7.5 EE. In Aberdeen loafers, I've tried 7EEE (a little too snug) and 7.5EEE (a little too loose). Any suggestions?

    I would email an Alden retailer like Yenni at Brick+Mortar, Matt at Ealdwine, or the helpful guys at Alden of Madison [Avenue, NYC] and they will help you get your fit dialed in. Their advice has always worked well for me.

    Tan suede chukkas on crepe today. I think these are from Alden of Madison. Basically a high end version of Clark’s desert boots, really comfortable.

    Maiden voyage of Leffot black shell longwings for #WingtipWednesday. Like @Thrift Couture's, these have red linings. You can't see them when they're being worn but I know they are there and that's all that matters LOL.
