Still waiting for a call..

I've assembled the shell family (Hallecks not here) in anticipation of new members arriving next week: Whiskey WTBoot, Ravello Captoe Boot and Cigar balmoral..
I luckily got in on the Ryden **** kicker and aside from keeping my fingers crossed for a Ravello (or Cigar or Whiskey ; ) NST shoe or boot my Alden splurge is close to over. Until I get into suede !

Yes Sir,

Thank You Very Much.

Same as you in regard to fittings:

Barrie-10E
Hampton-10E
Plaza-10E
Aberdeen-10EE

 

[Watchman1]

Also,

I could really use a 10EE in Grant as well.

10E works, but 10EE would just be a little better.

Thanks all for the compliments, if it weren't for this thread my search would have been way less fruitful..
And I'm w/you lil'JL I can't get enough of those PT boots

Also,

A note concerning my affinity for the 9015. I think it is perhaps my favorite shoe.

1. Comfort
2. Styling

It is amazing to me how many people do not appreciate the beauty of this shoe. Every time I post pics of them over on AAAC, someone comments and says that they are outdated and that they are "Biscuit" shoes and all sorts of negative criticism.

And, I just keep posting them because I like them so much.

Everyone says that the Euro and Northampton made shoes over-rule them in terms of sleekness and so forth.

And that may be true...but, they just fit my fat feet sooo good.

Because of that...I'm gonna rock em till the soles fall off...and then send them back to Alden and do it all over again.

Happy Sunday!

Wow--nice set. Those cigar boots are especially insane. I assume they are older than the chukkas, or did you just luck out with a lighter shade?

They are older, good luck and a kind fellow SFr posted them here..from Leather Sole in I think 2011. The chukkas are new/unworn..

Hi everyone, did anyone purchased
BROWN CHROMEXCE LBARRIE LAST COMMANDO SOLE STYLE #44924HC from alden madison?
I want to ask about the fitting. I own a pair of cap toe boot in barrie last from tassels hong kong

and a pair of 990. I found that the 990 is larger than cap toe boot even they are both in US7.

I am not sure which size i should take for this boot. should i take us6.5 for the #44924HC or US7 ?
hope you guys can give me some advice

thanks

It sounds like you fit similar to me where you can go TTS in barrie lasted boot's and need to drop a 1/2 size in barrie lasted shoes. In that case I would suggest keeping the size 7 as they should fit the same as Tassels boot. By the way, welcome to the forum!
