ALDEN

[tatmantall]

my last post in this thread. My replacement Indy's ripped off the welt again only two months after recieving them and less than a month of wears in because i have been wearing my Vibergs. The dissappointment in the decline of Alden quality cannot be expressed; however, the good news is they are issuing me a refund which will be put towards something that WILL last. later Alden peeps… I hope that my experience has been a fluke and none of you have as many issues as I have in the last six months

That really sucks. I've, so far (knock on wood), had no problems with my Indy Kudu. Good to hear that they are,at the least, refunding you instead of leaving you stuck with a product you're unhappy with.

hai everyone
i'm suro, let me join in this thread
i wanna buy alden indys 403, but i confuse for sizing. i usually use 42 or 9 in chucks, anybody in here who can help me and what i should take size in indys?
thank you everyone

I wear 11.5 in Indy's, but I probably could have gone with a 11.  12 in Nike & Puma. 10.5 E in RW 877.  Vibergs are 11.  Hope this helps.

I wear 10.5 in puma, converse, etc, but I have wide feet and they were always too narrow. I now wear Alden 9.5EEE or 10E. Not sure how the width factors in, but I'd say at very least drop half a size. Maybe a full one. Since 403s are cxl and cxl stretches a lot, maybe size down a full size.

Just picked up my new Alden Daytripper Ravello Captoe's from the cobbler. Topy'd and ready to wear! Pics:

Those are truly beautiful boots… one of the best and most sought after makeups.

Enjoy in good health.

daytrippers are stunning boots! where did you still find a pair?

[tigerpac]

He's the boot god, he can find anything

[Finn666]

Got them from Leffot. They were a bitch to acquire though… I was on the blasted waiting list for a year! Alden's take some patience...

[madmonday]

nice weather joints, will see how long i can keep them like this

[seanocono]

Wow, those are really nice, Monday.  Good luck keeping them like that. For what it's worth, I'm a BIG fan of your rough-out Whites, too.

[madmonday]

thanks

hope you talking 'bout the pair i'm wearing for the mega foot fetish thing . . . the other pair i have is on the sale rail, the heel just didn't work for me.

was actually gutted about it for two seconds 

[seanocono]

Yep. Talking about your comp. pair. They might be my favorite of the HWBC.

[joesaintjohn]

Bl@ster, those are GORGEOUS!!!

[ArnoldLayne]

Stunning boots these last few pages.

My natural CXL Indys, 4 months in, wear at least a few times a week.

This pic is a bit old, but these are my pair of Alden plaza last captoes, 5 years of wear:
