Alden Shop Update

Post by Indiana John »

I just received word from Allen White at the Alden Shop
Yes, the 405 boot is still available. The style was not included in the new revised website because we were waiting for a new graphic to be produced. We just yesterday received the 405 graphic and the boot will be in the online catalog the first of next week. I am attaching the new graphic if you care to use it. The current price on style 405 is $255.00.
Here is that picture:

Hey! I was right. Cool.

It looks like the price went up 10 bucks. Not cool.

I remember them being $245. I am sure people remember them being even cheaper.

Believe it or not, $255 is still the low end of Alden's market. Most of their shoes are in the $300-$450 range.

Yeah if your spending over 200 dollars on a pair of shoes 10 bucks isnt really much, but thats just me. Thanks Indiana John for the update. Does it look like the color has changed?

Yeah, looks like the same leather to me....! Too bad about the price hike, ugh. Its too bad we cant work out some kind of deal with the Alden shop like the deal we have with Sgt Hack, and some of the other vendors. How many pairs of the 405 would they sell if it werent for us? :)
