Good to hear, I just pulled the trigger on them.Usually pretty close. The difference with them compared to some other retailers is that they do not offer the pre-order until the order is confirmed into production. These means that a timeframe for delivery has been given by Alden. I prefer this style to the 2+ years I have been waiting for other orders
Thanks. This is my 1st pair of shells that I've bought new and am amazed how the color is coming in.I love the patina that forms in the section between the line of the cap toe and the lacing. Starting to get that variation in color in my cap toe boots, beautiful... wear in great health my friend!
ps the garbage can in the background doesn't help the look.
nephew, good shine on your saddles
nephew, good looking whiskey
This doesn't mean the shortage is BS. Your friend may be able to go to Horween and place an order for 10 shells, yet Horween could still not have enough to fill an order from Alden for 1,000.PSA: so the whole shell cordovan shortage thing is bullshit. I had a friend go to the Horween factory today (his 3d time visiting). He spoke to Nick Horween who offered to fill all the orders of shell that he wanted. The whole shell wait time is unclear-but it is not for lack of shell.

Means nothing. Maybe normally they would have thousands.True, but he said that he saw "stacks and stacks" of shells. Indicated that it was in the hundreds.
There are two aspects to your questions: (1) how long does it take Alden to create the shoes and get them to Leffot; and (2) once Leffot receives the shoes, how timely are they in letting you know they have them, collecting the balance due and getting them to you.I've never pre ordered before with Leffot, are they generally timely with fulfillment?
+ 1Stores like Leffot and Leather Soul may have thousands of Alden shoes on preorder at any given moment... This of course ignores J Crew, Brooks Brothers, the Alden shops, the international market, Allen Edmonds, etc. A few hundred shells isn't that much compared to total demand.
