ALDEN

[tigerpac]

Got a msg today - expected delivery next Wednesday.  How are they sending it, via bicycle?  Jeez.

Amazon Prime makes me hate waiting for anything now even moreso than I always did.

The shells are here

[tigerpac]

Jeez no love for Alden around here!

I know we focus on toughness around here –- but commando sole and shell uppers are pretty damn durable.

[Finn666]

we need more pics of yours mate!

[sirxlaughs]

Indy Kudu with kevlar laces have been tough enough for the streets of NYC.

Looks amazing!

[Finn666]

[tigerpac]

Not coming up for me ^

[seanocono]

^Me neither. Must be a Tapatalk issue, as I'm pretty sure Rafa knows how to post a photo.

[Finn666]

hmmm weird…uploaded with imageshack as always and it's visible for me.

[ben2t]

not showing on mine too!

[seawolf]

I can see them just fine. Shoes look great!

[tigerpac]

Now it's up.  Looking good!

I took my horsies out in the rain Friday night.  Crazy how water just beads up and rolls off!

[rth]

You guys have any ideas where one might find aldens on sale? Or do they even go on sale?

[seawolf]

They don't really go on sale. The Show Mart sells factory seconds from time to time though and you can find some pretty good deals.

[tigerpac]

Every so often a Jcrew sale coupon works on their Aldens.  Most don't work but if you are patient it'll happen eventually.

[Mumbles]

you can catch a deal on them a few other places too like needsupply and rooneyshop, but yea hard to find
aldens on sale.

Speaking of Alden driving you crazy by making you wait - try filing 'exotic' colored shell shoes or boots in your size… anywhere lol

[Chris]

What is considered an "exotic" color?  And your feet aren't that big, are they?  I was thinking you're about an 11 or 12; not something ridiculous, like that yeti seanocono, with his size 15.5 meat slabs.
(No hate, Sean )

[tigerpac]

Whiskey or ravello shell (or number 4 if you really wanna get crazy) I'm a 10/10.5 depending on the last… they just don't make a lot of em, in any size!

Trying to get some whiskey cord dress shoes but the only thing I found was a 100% deposit 6 month wait scenario.  And something about a 100% deposit bothers me, its like the automatic 20% tip at a restaurant.
