          A make-up I rarely see… 6 eyelet chukka on TruBalance last (Unionmade store, Bison Leather)

          Peterock, Jason (Unionmade) and I were chatting with Nate Humble who is the Alden US West Coast rep at the store party a few years ago and came up with an idea of a six eyelet chukka on Trubalance last.  Jason submitted the work order through but we never heard back.  Fast forward a few years later…. then this shows up.

                  I tend to wear Alden most of the time, since i find them more comfortable than my Viberg.

                  You got plenty of nice boots already Seul.

                    That's true… No need, no room and no budget for more  🙂

                          shit, regardless of the horror stories regarding Alden QC that are floating around,  I still am very attracted to the Indy boot.  Its one of the best looking casual boots out there in my opinion.  Doesnt help that I work about 2 blocks from Alden SF either.

                              Cleaned up and ready to go back-

                              I took these in on the 3/23 and got them back on the 4/17. They quoted me 4 weeks and were pretty much dead on. Alden did a really nice job and they look (much) better than they did when new. They also re-did the eyelets because I told them they were destroying laces. Awesome! I feel like I got a pair of boots for free a year later.

                              Sorry about the color on these pics. I have awful lights in my room and I suck at my camera 😞

                                My Alden Indy X J Crew. I liked the color of the Horween CXL.  Picked them up past Aug & definitely my go to boots.

                                  Not too happy with this… put on some Montana Pitch blend on these one week old plain-toed Aldens and ended up with a sort of reverse cap-toe... tried to even it out but no dice... anybody have any experience with this?

                                      The first time I put picards on my boots gave me a heart attack. It evened out pretty quick…I wouldn't worry about it.

                                          Only worn my replacement indy maybe a week and the leather has streched stupid amounts… Regretting not just taking my original to the cobbler and having them fixed. There is a tremendous difference in the leathers used from last year to this year.

                                            I'm guessing that's a bad thing. Sounds like Alden quality has taken a nose dive
