Evening milkshake. I got these, from another member here, and they were one of my grail boots. I missed the original issue from Union Made, so was so glad to find these here, on the B/S/T thread.

Love modified boots, especially Indys. I have a plain toe and an Indy, and another pair on the way from MouldedShoe.
Thanks gents
MouldedShoe seems to be the king of Modified last!
I believe Moulded Shoe is the exclusive US retailer of the modified last. Anyone who has the chance should check out their store. It’s a time capsule, and also great service.

My only access, unfortunately, is via the internet. Simply can't make the trip, as it's over 1K miles.

As I am sure you know, as long as you had pre-treated with Saphir's waterproof spray you should be fine. And yes, those shrimp can be really jumpy especially as their lives come to an end when they end up in the pan.

I am not sure that is 100% accurate.

I believe The Shoe Mart has a few:

As well as Alden Madison:

Sorry to rub it in (again) but I may stop by on Wednesday as well as Alden Madison but honestly it is more about getting fit, in-person, since the last Alden shoes I purchased several years ago were AldenxBB. And, I have had a heck of a time the past few months finding an AE shoe that fits well via online orders so I am giving up, getting sized, trying on a few things, and then will hopefully be able in the future to order online like the rest of you who know your sizes in all of these Alden lasts.
