Rest in peace, Mac. Truly a gentlemen, always. In his honor - wearing my boots the way they were meant to be worn, because they aren't Rembrandts after all. Color 8 is king.

@Misterg12 inspired me on lace color so I switched to red and went thrifting today. Although nobody said a word to me, I am quite sure they were silently admiring the CXL look. That's my story and I am sticking to it.

So sad to hear about Uncle Mac. His words of encouragement here with my shoe selfies were always welcomed. He would always disappear around tax time due to this work. Should have known something was up since he had stopped posting for a while now.

I know he provided lots of words of encouragement to many posters here. I primarily come to SF here about Alden b/c it is such a great, supportive community. One day I ended up in Ask Andy and he was also encouraging those guys over there! RIP, Unc.

Whatdja find?

NOTHING! Not every day is a winner, but then some finds keep you going back out. Like the Maus and Hoffman crocodile tassel loafers. $8. Nearly new. MSRP $850. Long gone now on the flip.

Very sad to hear of Uncle Mac's passing. He was always such a gentleman, and became a minor celebrity to me long before I even purchased my first pair of Alden's.

Beautiful tribute from all you gents. I must say that the members of this thread honor Mac's memory through their geniality, kindness, and welcoming nature. It's definitely the classiest thread on SF, and Mac's influence had a lot to do with that.

Very sorry to learn of this fine gentleman's passing.

Wonderful tributes from you all. I have enjoyed reading this forum for the past several years, and as others have said, the congeniality and warmth that is shared here is noteworthy, and no doubt due to the classy standards and influence of the legendary Mac.
