Friends, be happy for me. Today was Alden Longwing Day. My special order color 8 975s shipped from the fabulous Kathy in DC, and I put a deposit down on the green suede LWB from the equally fabulous Yenni.

Hooray.

Gents, I hope I'm doing this correctly, if not, please let me know and I'll remove immediately from my signature line.

I would include the size in the headline. Good luck!

Cigar gunboats today.

Mr Venneri - That my friend is a perfect example of what a gunboat should look like. Wear them often and in great health!

Joining up for 2016! Happy New Year all. Great work Mike!



Color 8 for BB (excuse doggie hair)

Profligate - love the color, the shoe and the foxing!

Pepper - Congrats on a fantastic longing day! Beside from receiving a shoe from Kathy in DC, what made your order of the 975 special? Pictures please! I'm still really considering getting on the green suede LWB...

RTP - thanks for the advice, it was much appreciated. I have made the edit.

My extra wide duck-foot size (10.5 EEE) necessitated a special order. Otherwise it's just a stock LWB in all its burgundy glory, with black sole edge trim, just as God intended.

I'm a 10.5EE. Maybe we should form some kind of duck foot band

We could! Do you play? I'm a professional musician, actually.

Dr. Pepper,

You strike me as either:

A. Bass player
B. Some sort of horn. Saxophone perhaps?
C. Percussion

So, which is it?

 

[Watchman1]

Or perhaps letter D...all the above...

Thanks to Allen Dreadmon for the Haberdash PSA, grabbed the tan LWB.

I'd love to, however, I lack any sort of musical talent. You wouldn't even want me on air guitar

. I do enjoy a wide range of genres. What do you play and what type of music? Anything we can listen to?

PSA: Haberdashmen.com has started discounting Alden's across the board.

Thanks for the heads up. Scored the burnished tan longwings that I have been eyeing.
