The Official Alden Thread for 2022 - Share Reviews, Sizing, Advice, and Photos.
Indeed, well 1 hour once I was in Boston, I actually did 2 hours driving to San Diego airport, then 5 hours flight, then 1 hour bus to pick a car, plus 1 extra hour getting there, hope I can smuggle some cans back to Mexico 😅- pedromvu

The Official Viberg B/S/T Thread
Finally got these just to realize they don't fit me and I lost the return window :(, I think I screwed on the size seeing them listed as 8UK/9US not realizing all Viberg are by default UK sizes, so these are basically 1 full size too small, I use 9D Trubalance/Barrie, 9.5D Plaza, my size 9 last...- pedromvu

I was just searching and found a place selling leathers, and while I don't know the sizes or where the distributor is, I noticed CF Stead Janus Calf suede was twice as expensive than their Repello one, that could explain it, most brands don't list which specific suede leather, just the source...- pedromvu

There's plenty of high end brands that use suede from CF Stead tannery, although I still don't have another example to compare yet (Viberg incoming) I always wondered what the process is on selecting the suede for each brand. I've heard that at least Grant Stone chooses specific pieces of...- pedromvu

The Alden Buy, Sell, Trade (B/S/T) Thread
Frankly I think you might be able to get a bit more than this on eBay, just try to get some better photos, also I don't think I have ever seen this particular model, what kind of leather is that one? I was interested in the Alden of Madison model similar but with Chromexcel, just there so many...- pedromvu

Didn't know about that last, I did remember seeing the V-tip on an old catalog but maybe it was only on shoes and not boots, maybe NST boots are not that old either for Alden (somewhere around 2000s?) Me neither, I feel Alden lasts are distinctive enough and cover a lot of different looks, and...- pedromvu

Weird question, does anybody have an idea of when was the last time Alden introduced a completely new shoe style or last? I know it doesn't really matter since there are already endless combinations with what they already use with leathers, soles, stitch patterns, etc. But was seeing an...- pedromvu

It's still a bit hot here around south of California, but because it's the last day of Indy month, I guess it's boot season anyway These were my first 3 Aldens bought at the end of last year. This year I didn't keep the pace so only 2 new additions incoming: 1- Alden of Madison Tanker in Color...- pedromvu

Some leather questions of stuff I was thinking about the past few days: 1- Anyone knows which tannery makes the leather for the Alden Vintage Indy from Leathersoul? It's an Oiled Nubuck but I have rarely seen mentions of tannery names outside Horween and CF Stead in their model descriptions, so...- pedromvu

Since I was a child have always hated to wear formal stuff, they made me do it when going to certain celebrations, for me it was just uncomfortable, also school forced black dress shoes and tucked in shirts and no long hair which probably was what made me never want to go back to that kind of...- pedromvu

I wouldn't know what exactly is acceptable as business casual since I never had a non casual job, but if you mean something that can be more passable as slightly dressier boot, I think there are some darker U-tip boots that could do the job specially without contrast stitching, they are mainly...- pedromvu

Most likely 9.5E, while people say the last is already wide, I don't think is enough to justify lowering the width, maybe more of a shape thing, I am 9.5D Brannock and 9D fits perfectly fine with medium thickness socks, I can also wear with very thick ones but feels slightly tight.

What's the consensus between the traditional Indy (Trubalance) vs Barrie Indy (not sure if all are called U-tips), I was looking at pictures and they look pretty similar, maybe the shape of the front stitching a bit more round, and a bit sleeker on the Barrie one. Do you guys prefer one over...- pedromvu

Can anyone ask for these special makeups? I assumed only certain stores contributed by themselves, where does the preview come from? or is it just an approximate based on the closest one? I imagine at the end of the day they are just a special order directly to be made by Alden as all their...- pedromvu

The Alden Buy, Sell, Trade (B/S/T) Thread
Man, those cap toe boots are calling me, but I wear 9D in trubalance, hence assume 9D in Barrie too, but I have no idea how the fit changes in shell for these boots, since I don't own any yet.- pedromvu
