From a cached version of an orthopedic shoe retailer that sold Alden orthopedic shoes:

That looks straight from the horse's mouth!
Stitchdown had an article where he found some older catalogs with the CDI in it. Doesn't give any more info, but kinda neat to look at.

The whole "in stock" thing is a weird concept for me for Alden, mostly because I'm buying the independent shops' special make ups.

Ugh. Short of machine stitch Ravello Indys (I know it's not possible), I think this leather is my grail I missed out on.

Lol .. Not quite Ravello but I like them enough one of those Reddit BST finds that I left super happy with.

Digging through old pics on my phone and stumbled across this one. Really enjoy the nature of shell.
