$350 + $10 shipping - is that about what Aldens cost in 1999? Sure, seconds, but if they turn out to be in good shape, I think I'm doing extremely, extremely well in my inflation-fighting!

Please don't tell me these were in a 6.5E.

Yeah, I read that when he posted. I'm .5 size smaller than you are. I hope the 8's are all gone!

What are peoples thoughts on Alden light Tan Suede makeups, such as longwings? Are they a versatile color, and are they high maintenance at all considering the lightness of the color? Just having trouble imagining what they would go with....

Is snuff suede perhaps much more versatile? My only thing is that they are perhaps a bit more autumn than spring...
