            Yeha, the crepe-sole is so comfy, amazing 😃

            Will definitely put that onto my pair or Indi boots when the double-leather sole  falls off.

              Nice pick up A.

              Just spotted this on SM:

              Goodyear logo on the bottom, something new. Too bad I had already put down a non-refundable deposit at a different stockist for a similar Cigar Indy but that one is not coming yet, maybe at the end of the year.  😠

                Hm, who is SM? Could you tell me the url so I check if they have my size left? Cigar shell Indis are kinda rare, though.

                        Think Beats have may purchased something with a Vibram Sole of the Indy variety…  😉

                                Beatle,
                                I had to come back to this thread and just say that the Kudu is really growing on me.  At first, I would barely give it a second glance and now I'm drawn to it.  I especially love the fact that it has the 360 degree welt.

                                  I need a little advice.

                                  I am thinking about buying the unlined flex welt chukka, but I wasn't sure about the durability, especially living in Philadelphia with the colder and often snowy winters.

                                  I don't want to spend the money on them if I have to worry about throwing them on during the winter and just wearing them.  Never really had a leather soled shoe that wasn't a dress shoe.

                                  Out with the new! In with the old!

                                    trust me, this isn't gonna keep your feet warm in winter, plus, the sole will be super slippery on wet or icy sidewalks…

                                      I have now officially gone off Alden.

                                      I bought a pair of Indys back in Feb they were seriously substandard (I would not have paid USD100 for them in a garage sale) - Kiya laughed when I took them out of the box.  They were replaced (after a lot of wrangling).  I noticed today that this has happened to the replacement pair which I have worn them no more than a dozen times:

                                      Quite probably the last pair of Aldens I buy.

                                          Wow!  This sucks, but for some reason I'm not surprised.  There are so many issues out there with Aldens but they somehow get suppressed with all of the praise and love for them (often over the top).

                                            The interesting thing is that Alden refused to accept that the first pair were substandard (the retailer I bought them from replaced them at his own cost because he was so appalled by the quality of the boots and Aldens attitude - he has asked to remain anonymous - I guess because he is shit scared of the repercussions).

                                            I do have to say that I have 5 or 6 other pairs of Aldens that I have had no problems with but Aldens attitude to an obvious quality issue was IMO appalling.

                                            I dunno what to buy next.
