Really??  I'd be looking for reasons to wear those things!  The good news is you and I are the same size...

Can't believe I passed on this one. It could be years before this gets run again.

Excellent wdahab! Hope you enjoy them. I have a 379x boot and find them very comfortable

Gentlemen!
*Update*
I ask for your opinions on this matter - I currently have a pair of brown chromexcel Alden indy boots, which I love. Thinking about getting another one in snuff suede or black chromexcel... Anyone photos that can better clarify the situation?
Don't really know what I can really match with black boots...
Thanks for the help!

i vote for snuff. recently bought a pair w red brick sole and love them.

TSM marketing email from the good old days.

2009?!?!!? they sold aldens back then?

i had not found uncle mac's pictures yet. i was going through my "prada sport" period...

Wow... if only things were available like that today.. (Been on a ravello list for over a year already lol)

we would be in serious trouble. time machine please.

Looking at some old order emails from TSM, calfskin Indys were $315 in early 2008.
In Nov 2009, cigar LWBs were $650.
Feb 2011, Whiskey PTBs were $632
May 2013, Whiskey LHS were $704

I thought TSM only did Whiskey and Cigar LWB?

both pass through NYC and DC from time to time

Picked these up from NeedSupply

Were you able to get them when they first posted them with the ... error?

2 new drops at Lost and Found
#8 PT boot on crepe
Snuff Suede Indy on crepe

They priced the shell at $975 CAD (700 USD) That CAD is so sad..

Horrible isn't it.

Fantastic shoes! Your posts often plunge me into a whiskey, #4 bout of envy.

@BenLeaman

Thanks Mike, better than any ravello shell.

This will be daughter #2 for my wife and me. Our first was about five and a half years ago - right around the same time that I pre-ordered my Ravello "Brixton" boots from Epaulet... and I'm still waiting on them.

We're shooting for two girls also. Good luck on those Ravello Brixton

my suggestion is to wear shoes you'll be comfortable sleeping in

Nice suggestion as I'm sure it will happen.

Solid advice!

I wore a beat up pair of Clark's to my son's birth. You never know when you'll get hit by....Er......shrapnel (gross).

But as both my kids were born in under 2 hours from labor to delivery (my wife is tough like that, south Asian genes and all), I didn't get to experience much of the "magic" of delivery room camping.

Anyways, congrats and good luck!!!!

Thank you. I'll be certain to stay aware that I'm sitting in the splash zone.

Yeah Buddy! Congrats! My wife and I are expecting in June!.

Thanks, congratulations to you and your wife!

A huge congratulations!

Thank you!
