Feeling like spring, these color 4's got the call

One of the rare days I make it back to the office. 'Milos' chocolate vtip boots I designed with Yenni get the call!

We seriously need to chill out with commando and do more double waterlock soles. They're just so much more flexible and comfortable.

Agreed! Double leather is so much more comfortable! Great make-up and collab!

SoSo jeans, right? great fades! i seem to recall you got these secondhand - ebay? or a better source for these? would love a pair, but don't have the stamina to break in 33oz jeans.... i''m 9 months in on some 18oz'ers and it's been a journey, for sure.

Yes Sir, pre-loved SoSo Denim I lucked up finding on eBay. I could never accomplish the amazing fades on a pair of jeans like this. The previous operator did all of the heavy lifting, I am fortunate to reap the benefits. For the weight, they are crazy comfortable.

Flat 270 degree welt.

Did Aram change the welt type or did those boots have a flat 270 degree welt before?

I never really sought out Color 4, always thought it was overrated and too bourgeois for me. While the color certainly is pretty to look at, it's the construction on these that really speaks to me. They're by far the most impressively constructed pair of Alden's I've ever gotten my hands on, with spot on symmetry and beautiful hand-stitching on the vamp. Really looking forward to getting these into my rotation to break up Black and Color 8!

Pretty sure they were always this way.

So, sitting in the dressing room/closet...supposed to be about 12 degrees F tomorrow, with snow....leather soles-no....that means commando....then...color 8 or suede? I had a positive medical thing today, and I was so afraid it was going to be negative...that I'm sitting here wondering what to wear tomorrow, and what holes need to be filled in the shoe/boot wardrobe....Love you guys!

We love you @audog! Glad to hear about medical stuff. Enjoy tomorrow, whichever pair you land on.

Thanks. It may just be slippers and stay inside as they are saying 3-6 inches of snow possible as well.....

OK, this HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH FOOTWEAR...but just wanted everyone to know...Setting the stage...My grandmother, and cousins (2) died from Colon Cancer....I did the ColoGuard thing as per my physician...test came back "abnormal" so did a colonoscopy today....The MD who did the thing (25+ yrs experience) found nothing that looked like cancer....Upon discharge told me that the Cologuard has a 13% FALSE POSITIVE reading....NOW, I WANT ALL YOU GUYS TO GET SCREENED...but don't spend weeks wondering as I did....just do the damn thing, wear Aldens to the appointment, as you will for sure have best footwear at the facility.....
