View attachment 1033942 Dog’s awesome suede Tassels were the inspiration. Not yet owning Suede Tassels.. had to go Black Shell BB Tassels.
Washed Yellow TB cotton/silk cord shorts. RL green and white rep striped ribbon belt brass d-rings.
Black w/ White screen printing Buffalo Bar & Grill, Payson, AZ tee.

Only 108 here today.. this is why I lap swim 6 days a week

Suede tassels (today's version) from Brogue. The light tan ones I have were TSM 2nds and have a minor defect on suede on heel of Left shoe, doesn't bother me. Looks like someone went nuts with edge dressing and got it on the suede. You should get a pair, as you rock loafers! Swimming is awesome, was a competitive swimmer as a kid, all through High School. Have had a pool in yard as an adult until 4 years ago as new house lot won't accommodate a pool and didn't want to encroach on wooded area near creek behind house. SOOOOO I'm putting a pool in at my kids house 4 miles away, as I would rather swim in my own pool than the Y.

Damn, I like that!!!

Not to be rude, but that begs the question- why are you selling the "whole lot" of Alden shoes?

Here's my honest answer:

I'm a musician, and the past couple months have been rough. Sadly, I need to start selling my nice things. But the guys on this forum genuinely love the brand, so there is nowhere else I would sell. I didn't even list them on eBay!

Always wanted one and saw Sherman Bros had them so figured why not.

Thought that looked like a Tele/Strat/Jazz bass case in the background. Sorry things are tough right now.

Don't blame you, I have looked at them myself but haven't pulled the trigger

Hey guys, I wanted to apologize for coming into the tight knit community of this forum with dollar signs in my eyes. I never thought I would upset anyone for posting a sale, but I can see how it would be offensive.

Thank you for the thoughtful messages, and thank you for welcoming me into your clubhouse.

I stopped by AoM today, asked for ETA on the blue suede tankers on Plaza, and I was told that Alden just confirmed delivery to the store within 6 months.

I might have to get a pair of Indy's while I wait.

Does anyone have some reverse chamois indy boots photos to share? I would want to see how they age.

Alden fourth avenue boots from B+M with laces from Hanger Project. I sold the JCrew PCT boots to get these on the commando soles and the antique edge for a more casual look.

Hard not my friend with make ups like yours .. My new “Sasso” boot. Absolutely loved it.

Love looking at all of the great Norwegian front/tanker boots, but two of them, both on Plaza, really grabbed me. That blue suede beauty via AOM, and this sweet grain number, the Sasso boot, from B+M. Preordered the blue last week, and just jumped on the Sasso boot with Yenni. Sweet!
and now the wait....

Safari boots today.

Good luck! The original run took closer to 9 months despite the 6 month promise. Very cool boots though and worth the wait regardless.

I like those a lot.

Totally understand, and sorry to hear you're in that situation. But, yeah, looks better if you at least introduce yourself before selling.
