Inaugural wear for my 403s. I should have bought them sooner. I may have to get a 2nd pair so I don’t break the “give them a days rest” rule. Paired with Kuhl hiking pants because I can.

Congrats on your first pair of Indys! No turning back now. Grab a pair of 405s.

Saz.. King WTB looks great! Maybe more than the exotics to my eye. RIP Mac.

Guys, do these representations of alden loafers look correct? I am concerned about ordering a pair where the strap is so uneven from left to right. Please advise if this something that is normal or expected for an new loafer purchase.

Any advise on these? Also check these out. Do they look out of sorts? I am concerned that the strap is sewn incorrectly on these as well. Is this typical?

Thank you Chippy. Color 8 is indeed King.

All this beautiful Ravello ain't too shabby either though

Hello,
Cigar LWB first wearing in outside.

Joining the round lace club here. Brown or Green? I'm thinking brown. Greens looking a bit too contrasting to me eye.

Hoping that a good wipe down of these will take the extra oil off the boot as the kudu keeps staining my white pants brown on the inside..

Great boot! That's my favorite last and medallion. Is that the Brogue Shop model?

I had a long day yesterday between taking the kid to the pediatrician (unplanned) and work, and decided to wear these PCT commando sole boots for comfort. I avoid wearing the same shoe two days in a row, but I ended up wearing these three consecutive days (albeit only a couple of hours on Saturday and Sunday). The commando sole and Barrie last combo is just amazingly comfy for my feet

What a fantastic pair of boots. Is this the shoe Mart makeup?

That looks like the standard 4461H. I got my pair from DC (not sure if they sell it anymore), but TSM does sell it.
