        I take a 11.5 in Vans and took an 11 in Indys when I had them. I would say you should go with a 11.5. I am sure some others with more experience/ pairs could help.

          My advise is to get yourself measured on a Brannock device to know your correct size and width, your average Footlocker or Sports Authority and so on will have such a device, then go 1/2 size down for your Indy's (they are on a Trubalance last) …

            I'm a 12 vans old school and a 11.5D fit perfect in the Alden 405.

                i'm with FurattoHeddo, get measured proper like.  if you have a high instep or webbed feet it can really throw off the sizing.  everyone is trying to help but just look at the sizing differences for each person  😶

                my best fitting indy's are an 8D i'm a comfortable 9 in most vans

                *what's wrong with a high instep 😠 it doesn't make me a freak

                              I can't figure out where iron heart fits into the upcoming collab boot(s) with self edge and leathersoul, other than the fact that there's a jean coming at the same time (and I can't figure out what leathersoul has to do with that)

                              whole thing seems a little odd considering the general consensus around here about Alden

                                    my guess is iron heart doesn't really have much to do with the footwear (I think there's a boot and a shoe) I think it's just a timing/event thing. I could be wrong and we don't have to discuss this further but I don't expect to see any IH branding on the footwear

                                        I believe there is a black and brown boot w/faux moc toe.
