    The Official Alden Thread for 2017 - Share Reviews, Sizing, Advice, and Photos.

     I have the Jcrew LWB (tobacco) and AoC cap-toe boot in shell both on Barrie both size 8.5 ... both fit as expected and well. I second that the Jcrew return policy can be put to great use here. That's how I decided on which size Alden Indy's to get, ordered multiple sizes, returned the ones...

     I have the J.Crew LWB's that @M635Guy has a pic of above, 8.5D and AF60 Shell boots from AoC in 8.5D. Both fit well. Am I being overly picky that the speedhook section of the Indy in 8D comes together when laced brand new,? Need to know if this is a non-starter before beginning to get...

    The Official Alden Thread for 2017 - Share Reviews, Sizing, Advice, and Photos.

     I’m concerned because at try-on the vamp/upper/sides touch or meet on the speed hook section and the Chromexcel might stretch out to the point that the boots are too big and sloppy not being able to tighten them any further. Also the Indy size 8D there's plenty of toe room. When standing...

    Looking for feedback on proper fit of a pair of J.crew Indy 405 boots in Chromexcel. I ordered a half size down (8D) from the Alden’s I have on the Barrie last (8.5D). I’m concerned because at try-on the vamp/upper/sides touch or meet on the speed hook section. Reviews online says that CXL has...

     Great suggestions, really like the Navy-Cream POW. Also fond of the Blue Glenplaid. Now the difficult part of deciding which.

    Vanda Fine Clothing - Official Affiliate Thread

    My first Vanda tie arrived yesterday, a Cinnamon Matka. I was so impressed that I ordered a second, in Chive. Have a question on seasonal appropriateness. Are these strictly for the warmer seasons, Spring, Summer or are they okay to wear year-round? What's the general rule or guideline if one...

    Offical Barbour Thread

    Thoughts on the starting temperature range of the Dept. B Commander (aka Beacon)? If it's 70 f and cloudy, would the jacket be too warm w/just a t-shirt?

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    Code "FALLAT30OFF" for 30% off Filson, plus free shipping, no tax. I see the 24 hour bag, 48 hour bag, and the new carry on size medium duffle ... black ONLY. I purchased the 24 hour bag, looks like it will make a nice daily office bag. http://www.toddsnyder.com/search?q=filson

    Did the flat waxed laces come w/the boots or where can they be purchased? Thanks [edit] Nevermind. Didn't see a response, but found out on my own that the flat waxed come standard, at least on the AF60.

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

     On a recent trip I carried the zippered tote in otter green and the updated medium duffle in navy as carry-on and think they went perfectly together ... functionally and aesthetically. To me, all the same color seems a bit too much. I found this combination to work perfectly on a 7 day...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    I'm interested to know which shops others have found to carry Filson in Zürich since I've visited several times in the past few years and don't recall having seen any having spent some time browsing the Bahnhoffstrasse and Viaduct shops. The Freitag bags are very popular and their flagship...

    Offical Barbour Thread

    Tried to locate a Barbour Dept(B) Commander in Olive online, but looks like it was a special edition and no longer available. I'm skeptical of ebay because of fakes on top of being unsure of my size, being between a S/M. Any thoughts whether there's going to be a re-release of the Commander...

    can anyone give a good rec for good smelling drugstore deodorant?

    Old Spice Fresh. The smell is the least affronting of all the big brands and it works as a deodorant well after the fragrance fades. old spice pro strength, fresh. every time i start sweating a women tells me i smell good. a little expensive, but works, and you don't have to apply much.

    New gap denim

    I like the high rise and slim fit of the Authentics, so I'm pretty bummed that they're being discontinued. Here's my question: Are there any other brands out there that have a similar fit (ie. high rise and slim fit through thighs and calves)? It doesn't have to be selvedge, what I really care...
