Awesome, enjoy! Id wear the heck out of those!
Most of the time I wish I could wear D width in more things. Then when I visit sites like Brogue or AoC, I'm happy for my wallet that I don't. Also, the wait for a pre-order is dang painful.

There's probably a pair in the back of your closet

Those are fantastic. Congrats!

Just got my first pair of Alden. Alden X Brooks Brothers Natural Chromexcel Tassel Loafers on Aberdeen last. These are just the most beautiful pieces of footwear I have ever seen. Although I have to watch it because the seal has definitely been broken and I have a new mistress.

Not sure what "seal" you are referring to, but the shoes look great!

I'm guessing he means the seal that was keeping the Pandora's Box of Alden Shoes at bay.

Precisely. Because I have not broken in my first pair. In fact, I haven’t even worn them outside and I am already scoping out my second pair. Especially with all the beautiful footwear that is consistently acquired and posted on this thread

View attachment 1042447 Brother from another mother...do I keep both and add brass to one? The dc is a beautiful mid Brown with a hint of red and the sf is a slighty darker brown with more red. Champagne problems!

I mainly own Vibergs but today these Indy’s arrived from Milworks. It’s my first pair of Indys and my first time trying the Trublanace last and its super comfortable.

Oh I hear ya. I drove to Alden of DC today and I knew there was a 50/50 chance of buying yet another pair of shoes, but luckily I decided to give up and just go home after driving around for 15 minutes looking for parking.

Great footwear, coffee and jeans! Looks like an enjoyable day.

Thanks, audog!

 

[vincentkd88]

New from Yenni. Something you do not see to often. Grant lasted WT’s. Really starting to dig everything on the grant last. Do peeps still say dig? Lol
