Sorry I am new and don't understand the irony.

Can you please explain?

My jumper boots from AS, pretty equal to the Conistons, and I love them - almost more than my Lindricks. :hide:

Beautiful boots. The "Avert Thine Eyes" spoiler is highly recommended in other contexts but not in this one.

Cross post from the Alden thread to compare the shape/color of my recently purchased C&J Islay to my other Alden boots (Left to Right):
  • Alden Cigar captoe with commando sole on Grant last - US9D (Alden DC - picked this up off B&S before I figured out my true size)
  • Alden Cigar Indy with commando sole on Trubalance last - US8D (J. Gilbert)
  • Dark Brown Scotch Grain C&J Islay with dainite sole on 365 last - UK7E
  • Alden #8 captoe with commando sole on Grant last - US8.5D (Alden DC)



I find the Islay to be the most attractive...

but I'm biased....I don't like Aldens...I don't find them visually appealing.
I can understand if the shape and style of the Indy is not for you. But I am confused how you could like the shoe and look of the Islay and not the 1st boot (cigar captoe on Grant last). They are quite similar in overall shaping
