    I went to Upper Shoes in Paris last week, and all of their #8 models were like this : light colored and very pinkish, far from the dark tones you see on online retailers those days. I have to say it was too even too pink for me; I realize I may be the only one here but I like them to keep a...

    Excellent move. Great looking pair of boots, the plaza makes it really pop.

    - One pair out : Black cordovan Chukkas, 7D barrie was wayyyy too big for me. - And one pair in : slightly used black calfskin cap toe derby, model 3E30. Definitively on the classy side of my closet. For sure not the most impressive nor the coolest alden around but it will get handy at the...

    Mike, that is excellent. I see you have the CXL wing tips in blue. I have the Indys in the same making. To maintain them I only use brushing and Saphir universal cream, and more brushing on them. Is that what you would suggest ? Cheers

    I knew you would love my post :-) Don't get me wrong I like the ivy / preppy look but I have to mix and adapt as otherwise on me it look to "literral"

    Really dumb question crossed my mind : I'll be visiting a friend in London by the end of the month, is there any shop where to check some Alden's in the city ?

    Somehow I dig the leathers black, color 8, browns... but I can't wear no suede chukkas. Looks too "preppy" on me I think... I should have been a little more precise but I'm not starting a collection, at the moment I already have 5 aldens, I just don't have any suede shoes and not many browns...

    Me too, but I don't believe a sale on whiskey size 6.5D will come up on ebay anytime soon :-)

    Thank you, didn't even know that website existed (bookmarked). There selection is a little too cautious for me but the dark brown wingtip ball is interresting. That's an excellent suggestion as I went for a whisky/shoe talk drink with a friend and he said to me exactly the same : keep it...

    Guys, I'm looking to buy in 2017 my first suede alden's. If you had to pick only one pair, not too casual so you can wear it in the office from time, which model / color & sole would it be ? Some fellows suggested the Longwing snuff suede from Frans Boone Store, I like it a lot but I'm not...
