These just arrived and I'm very pleased with them. Probably going to pack them away for down the road sometime.

Such an awesome boot, great buy. I was sad that my size (8.5) wasn't available when I first came across them online :(

I got mine as part of the pre order so luckily I didn't run into that problem. It's my first Plaza last so I was worried about fit but seems ok.

@epaulet are there any tennis highs available? Love my pair and I've decided that's the only casual shoe I need.

i will happily pay a small proxy fee for a pair of 10.5s if anyone wants to help!

Hmm in regard to the above, are there any venerable Epauleteers attending the sale who might be able to give a helping hand with Aldens in size 9/9.5?

This is most probably pointless, but I wouldn't be myself if at least I didn't try, hee hee.

@tricky nope we haven't stocked Tennis highs in forever.

Thanks to everyone who came in today, I know that Adele saw a lot of friends and familiar faces!

Does that mean you won't be stocking them again or you're done with that style?

@tricky I think that we're going to retire it. We offered it in a few group buys, but it was consistently the worst seller. I think that the slip-on is going to be very popular, as will our new boot designs, and the factory will only accept so many variants when it comes to these projects. I'd love to hear everyone's feedback, but I'm thinking to replace the Tennis High & Running Trainer options with the Slip-On and the new Captoe boot.

The Running Trainer fits my foot a little better due to a wide forefoot, so my vote is to keep them available.

Same here. The tennis trainer and in particular the highs (mids?) on the far right are quite possibly the dopest kicks ever.

A good number of Aldens (including shell) still available at the store sale. A little bit surprised, but there was a discussion here a couple of months ago as to whether interest in Alden has waned.

Any 9 or 9.5 D by any chance?...
