Months ago, I posted a question about what was Alden Kuda leather, got the Black Friday View attachment 1508332 TSM seconds in that leather, ran the model number in Alden Model Project.......it's tobacco chamois, and I honestly think these are seconds of Adam's AoC-122. Hooks spaced a little apart right/left side, couple scuffs on shafts, other than that can't find much wrong. But they are boots, so who cares
Talked to Adam,they are his seconds! I'm sorry I didn't buy from him, as I like supporting Alden retailers and keeping small businesses in business, but seconds for around $250....had to do it. I hope all had a good Thanksgiving, kept safe from COVID and are looking forward to a Christmas season with social distancing :)

I need some advice. I have a pair of 405s and am ready to buy another pair. My two choices are the 401 and 403? I’m not sure how versatile the 401 is being black in color. The 403 is a beautiful boot but I have hear stories of it stretching. My 405s fit perfect and would I would not be happy if they stretched to the point they felt too big. Can you share your experiences with both these models? Thanks

Why limit yourself to those three models? There are tons of Indy boots available.
