ALDEN

I have to say, I've heard a lot of negative things about the Barrie last. In my experience so far with my new Longwings in Barrie, I actually prefer the Barrie to the Trubalance (403's). It seems to fit my foot a little better. I think the heel is a little too wide in the trubalance. So far I have a pair in Barrie, Grant, and Trubalance. Barrie ftw! (I know this post is mostly me rambling, but I'm on my fourth cup of coffee. buzzzzzzz.)
Love the Barrie last as well. I think the Leydon last fits me the best. I size down a full size for the trubalance.
I only have the Leydon last, but the fit is really spot on. I have always considered myself a 9D, the the 9D in the Leydon last is perfect.

Alden Epaulet Natural Chromexcel Indy Hand Stitched
Like these a lot I believe Monday owns those
-
not sure if they are the exact same pair (different toe stitching, different soles), but here are mondays again!…
nice shoe^^^
if i could do it all over i would have stuck with a pair of classic brown or kudu indies.
i like them, but these are just kind of beige to me now . . . ah, variety & something about the spice of something or the other

These look so good

nice looking patina you have there SimonQ. I like #8 so much, but I really dont care for it when its brand new. Once it starts to wear in and patina, it looks fantastic.

I am trying to understand Alden sizing. I am interested in a cap-toe boot on the plaza last.
I usually wear UK 8 or 8.5 depending on the shoe last. I would appreciate id someone could advise me on the sizing of the plaza last.
No experience with plaza last but I believe it is slightly longer than regular size
-
Plaza is true to size.

I managed to break the original laces on my Indys. They've been replaced with kevlar laces. The color adds an interesting touch to the Kudu, I think. They're already a bit dirty, but I can't tell if it's from my overdyes or NYC's atmosphere.

I wish I was old enough to not feel weird about wearing boots…sigh. Alden's are so nice....especially them Roy boots.
