Unless you're actually wanting to use it on a boat. Sperry's patent siping soles have no equal for grip on wet surface.

@glennonggara:

Hey guys, i have a few newbie questions here..:

Firstly..where can you get alden shoes online since there's no stockists here in Perth..

And second, how is the quality on these shoes? (pretty good from what i'm reading) and do they last long?

Im really interested in buying a suede chukka boot but does suede last long? and are they hard to maintain?

I drive a lot so which model do you think is best for me? I want good durability and comfy for both walking and driving (I'm gonna wear this daily)

Thanks guys!

I have a pair of Alden Indys and can't recommend these enough. Comfortable, sturdy, beautiful and well.. everything you need in an everyday shoe.

[glennonggara]

Should i get the boot or the oxford? Which is more comfy? What about for driving?

[Lucifer]

I have the boots, and I don't feel that they are restrictive for driving or any other activity, the heel/Achilles swoop make them sit quite tight and with a complete lack of heel-slippage.

[glennonggara]

umm guys..theshoemart.com currently can't ship Alden shoes internationally..

[Lucifer]

unionmadegoods can. They sent mine to Norway.

[glennonggara]

Thanks! but..They dont seem to have the model I want..Do you know any other store by any chance?

[Lucifer]

Leffot, Leather Soul Hawai and a few others will ship internationally! Good Luck!

My local Alden stockist JUST refreshed their Indy boots. I rushed over and had my pic of sizes. I typically wear a 10 or 10.5 in athletic shoes but downsized to a 9.5 with lightweight smart wool socks. I'm loving the boots but they are heavy!

Great pick up

Unionmade - Loden Green Boots.

Lady Calfskin
Commando Sole

[barun]

Holy Shit Arrow!  That may be my favorite pair of aldens now

[jimmy]

That is niiiceeee

[arrow]

Thanks Barun and Jimmy…

I was quite amazed on how comfortable these boots are.  The leather is buttery soft and the commando sole is perfect for walking around the concrete jungle.  Color is pretty unique as well.
