Ok I have the jacket in my hands! :rolling: First impression, you can see where the money went. If you guys have the funds, definitely buy this jacket! I'll post up pictures as soon as this weather clears up along with detailed measurements of myself to compare with the sizing of the BK. This jacket...

Dorian, Interesting video, thanks for sharing. The shoes in it are nearly identical to mine, down to the toe color variation. I promptly returned the boots and found a brick red pair at Alden of DC. Great to hear! I have found that dealing directly with Alden of San Francisco has been very advantag...

Just received from ShoeMart today. Looks like we're on the Alden pumpkin roller coaster yet again.

Awesome hat buddy! Congrats, another awesome Masterpiece from John. MY problem now is, you're making me get an itch for another Fedora! Your hat looks spot on Raiders!

I'm wearing my 405's pretty regularly, trying to break them in, and they feel better every time I put them on! Initially, I thought these boots would be great for work, but they're made so well, I'm actually wearing them when I go out, (Never thought these boots would fall under the "hipster&qu...

Man, I have to say those BKs look awesome! I really want one or an A-2 but the prices...wow! I realize they are amazing and you get what you pay for. Oh well, maybe keep saving some cash for one day far off!!! You're telling me! I've been looking at these jackets for about three years and as much a...

Please don't take this post as telling anyone 'You're doing it wrong!' It's just what I'm thinking because I have worn so many ill-fitting pairs of shoes in my lifetime. Alden shoes have basically 'fixed' my feet. The Brannock device should get most people very close. And a half-size down to me is ...

Thanks Illinois, I just checked Ups the boots are almost here! I'll try out those insoles if needed.

I don't have any in mine and they're extremely comfortable 'as-is'.

Thanks guys for all your help! I'm going to the nearest dealer here in Texas this week to try them out! Ideally, I prefer the the 405s for their color and durability of the calf leather, not so much for Screen accuracy.
