Back into Indy with a new pair of Aldens!

Post by Chevalier Krak »

I've been out of commission for months now - building a new house, in a new job, back in graduate school at age 57, burying the dog, raising the kids. But today I got a notice from Shoe Mart in CT that they had 405 2nds in my size and, even better, that they would only charge me $160 because fo the mark on the toe. Wooooeeee! Totally broke, but I finagled my aged mother into giving them to me as an early Christmas present. I put in my request a year ago, at least, and had completely forgotten. Here's the pic he sent me. The mark on the toe just adds to the character of the boots, IMHO. Anyway, for just around 1/2 price, I snatched 'em! :o

Nice score. I got my Alden's from Shoemart as well. The only problem with mine were a bent speedlace that was easily repaired.

Those are fantastic! Mine will be 10 years old next month, and they are still going strong! Wear them in good health!
