Alden unlined vs. Tod's Esquire Giovane Suede Chukka

[PiCcolocV]

Trying to find a staple brown suede chukka for the fall, and have tentatively narrowed down the options to the Alden unlined and the Tod's currently being sold at Nordstrom/Saks. Have tried both on and like both, but unfortunately have not been able to compare the two side by side in person - aside from the differences in the last and sole, any experience or feedback on either of these, or anything I should know about either pair in trying to determine which one to go with? Have looked other options from Church's, C&J, etc., but in the Washington, DC area those are tougher brands to find in-store, and would prefer to try the pair on before committing to ordering.
