Sorry if annoying on this thread (please drop me a note if this not cool). I bought these Alden x Unionmade Chukka boot chromexcel brown in sz 7.5 about 1.5 years ago and have not even worn it ever. I’d be happy to sell it under retail to someone who’s been wanting an Alden pair

Yes it is.

Slightly off topic...but is there anywhere I can pick up AE/Alden etc on the West Coast of the US for cheaper? I'm visiting SF, LV and LA but unfortunately there's no AE outlet this way.

There is an AE store in Los Angeles, it's in Beverly Hills just Google it it'll come up

$680.00 after VAT refund for these. German prices tend to be on the highish side. However, for quality hand welt it’s a good price. Also included shoe trees.

I don't think that's high at all, the handwelted construction is definitely worth paying for.

Yes, this is my point exactly. Everything else I saw was way up there.

Just got them back from a trip. Some of the best Viberg boots I own.

Today was shoe maintenance day for me and while I had a few pairs out I decided to take an updated picture of the shades in my shell collection.





In the top picture: black, green, color 8, cigar, dark cognac, ravello, natural and whiskey. Looking to add color 4 and color 2/rubi next. Had navy in the past and found it too close to black for my tastes.
