I have two questions and need some advice on which shell cordovan chukka to buy and wearing them year round.
First, I can only buy one pair now and I am torn between the new AE Cappuccino Cordovan Dundee www.allenedmonds.com/aeonline/producti_SF3671_1_40000000001_-1
and the Alden Color 8's with the commando sole from Alden of Carmel. I want both but can only have one. I currently own/rotate 2 pairs of vintage (16 year old and owned from new) Hanover/Bostonian shell LWB's one in cordovan and the other black. C&J for BB Peal & Co. cordovan cap toe boot, and AE cordovan Randolph in black. As many here know, there is a short window to order the AE's in the Cuppaccino. Further, I am concerned that the Alden's from Alden of Carmel will sell out in my size.
Please give me your opinions on which to buy and help me decide.
My second question is this. Is it ok to wear Chukkas year round, for instance in the spring and summer with bill's khaki's etc.?
Thanks for your input.
