Nice- thanks! for that price, worth taking a shot on. Wonder why the black are more expensive than the brown?

 

[Hard2Fit]

Anyone actually own these?
I'd be interested in a pair at the AMZN price. . .

I like them.

I almost pulled the trigger on these a few times over the last few weeks b/c i've been looking for a decently priced black boots/chukkas. I passed b/c i think they look too casual.

Does anyone think these are made by Alden?

I saw another thread where people commented on the low cut version being Alden. I know AE has a loafer plant in the NE and have heard murmurs of an independent shoe plant in Maine, anyone have any insight?

Probably not alden - the cape cod boot looks like this:

the soles look like the flex welt sole on some aldens...

They look to me like shoes that should be worn with a cardigan while sitting in a rocking chair, and I don't mean that in a good way.

 

[Jack2000]

Like them.

Like the ugly bastard child of a drunken one night stand between some chukkas and a pair of loafers, ugly.

I like chukkas and I like loafers, but I'm not even sure what to think about these.
