Club Obi Wan

After seeing what Tomelectrode was able to get from the Shoe Mart for $199, I decided to call them and put my name on a waiting list. The staff there was fantastic and within 2 days I received a call that they had my exact size. I was assured that though they were "seconds" they were still excellent and if I didn't want them I could ship them back for a refund. I took the plunge and there is one SERIOUS PROBLEM....

I cannot find ANY FLAWS!!! There is absolutely nothing wrong with these. They look better than my pair direct from Alden shoes 3 years ago. And the color is excellent on these boots too!!!

On a comical note, when looking them over for the "flaw" I heard a rattling in one of the boots. I thought "oh no", but it turned out to be the complimentary shoe horn....oops.

Here's some quick pics: The first one is right out of the box. The second one is after looking them over...and they fit perfectly...

Nice, good for you. Someday I will have a pair of Aldens, just not sure when. Looks like Shoe Mart seconds are the way to go though.

It's nice to see that you got to share in my good fortune. Great boots!

Now let me tell you about my $199 Wested HH...

Those are some nice Aldens! I can't wait to get mine.

Thankfully I bought some US cash while the dollar was high... Mwuuhahahahha.
