I could not agree more. I like them better than my Whiskey in both wingtip and plain toe.

I don't know Varvatos or Five Ten's fit, but I had to size down 1/2 a size from my Chucks on the Trubalance. I'd personally say size 8, but that's just my opinion.

I've read to many size posts on the forum, most of it conflicting.

For reference I wear:
Varvatos Chucks - size 8.5
Five Ten Basic - size 9
Varvatos loafers - size 9D

According to Alden the Trubalance last run a half size larger than marked.

Would this make my ideal Indy size a 8.5?

Thanks in advance.

Ok, after my thread died...maybe this is the right place to post this. Does anyone own the Alden for Winn Perry "Little Tank"? I would love to see pictures of the boots worn and if someone has seen/owns it what colour has it? More grayish or brown? The winn perry pictures differ a little bit from these I found on flickr (regarding colour).

And a kinda related side-note: Alden for Winn Perry Round 3:

Thank you! -MS

Hi I was trying to figure out what last this one pair of Aldens are. I only have pictures.

on the inside is this writing:

11b/d 7H 041TR (or IR) 2

I'm trying to figure out if I'll be able to fit in this shoe since I'm a true 11.5 but I've read on some models to size down

They're plain toe bluchers with 4 eyelets if that helps anymore.

Thanks!

we have some other special Aldens in the works so I will keep y'all posted!

Can you do pre-orders so those of us who don't wear a "D" width can get in on the action?

the saddle shoes and a couple others have been ordered already but with upcoming orders, yes.

I will be posting details shortly of upcoming releases and we can take pre-orders then

Just as an FYI, it looks like Shoemart has a nearly full stock of D width cigar long wings. Too bad that I'm a C width...

My Epaulet x Alden Brixton boots:

These are my first pair of Aldens. They definitely won't be my last.
