True you may need to wait awhile for some, but it truly is amazing the number of variations you can get them in. From the different lasts, leathers, indy or dress, varations of colors, and types of soles.

I've only begun to really look myself. I currently have the Indy 405 (back row) and I will have a 4461H or a Wing Tip Boot Shell Cordovan Color 8 by the end of the week.




So which Alden boot is your favorite?

Both Cowboy Boots are made by Lucchese. The middle pair is made from elephant and the black pair are made from lizard skin.

Indy. That's what I bought first.

I'm looking for a captoe boot in #8 for my next purchase... I think. Still undecided.

J Crew has a great looking Alden Captoe.

I almost bought that one.


I understand the color is more burgundy than most other versions.
