Shoes that look better with age...

[Aramyr]

Aramyr, if something happens to you.... Can I have your shoes??

Hey, if I somehow get offed, I would rather someone keep wearing them than they just get dumped somewhere. But I doubt they'd fit you well unless you have narrow feet..can't remember exactly what size they are since I ordered them over 5 years ago, but I think they're like a 10 and an A for width.

How would those Alden Indy's do in wintertime? I mean snow and all that shit? I'm somehow obsessed now. I had a flu last weekend and watched the Indiana Jones trilogy...

Nice "copys"

If you keep you keep them clean they'll be fine, the only thing to watch out for is salt which isn't good for leather.

I can't believe those Indiana jones Knock offs. They look pretty nice... and in different colors? The price point ain't all that different though. I would go with the originals still. It would be nice if Alden gave some color alternatives though.

[mizanation]

whoa! those are pretty close to the original.

so, two other companies have allen indy knock-offs. that's crazy.

[einolu]

those alden indies are the hottest things i have seen in a long time, i will have to pick some up next fall when i can make up a reasonable excuse for buying some. then again christmas is coming up and boston has a long winter...

[moykky]

Rumour has it that you should size 1/2 size down when ordering those Aldens. Deja-vu?

I will definitely cuff them... I don't want to risk looking like a clown.

[cheapmuthafukr]

need to get a camera... got my first pair of shells cordovans yesterday. nettelton plain toe oxfords... look pretty old, but new double soles and heels... leather is scuffed, but beautiful.... now i know why everyone raves about it.

best thing, they were 3$

now if only they were boots, but i cant really complain.

[familyman]

Where are all the pictures at? Two people were supposed to get the Brandos yesterday and CMF has a pair of horsey shoes and we've got no pictures? Come on!

Little irratible today, I have a pair of cordovan Aldens from ebay that are supposed to get here today or tomorrow and I'm just waiting for the bloody mail lady to drive by to see if they come. Post some pictures!

[TrappedInDC]

You wanted them... now you've got them.

Sorry about the picture quality, its my cameraphone, but better than nothing.

Thanks for the pics. You can still get a good feeling for the proportion and general lines of the boots and I think they look great. How do they feel? Initial impression on quality and construction? Value?

(stupid mail lady brought me 3 bills and no shoes, I'm pouting)

[mizanation]

nice. cmf and family man with shell cordos. please post pics.

nice brandos, DC!

rnrswitch, are you getting the brando engineers?

[cheapmuthafukr]

nice. cmf and family man with shell cordos. please post pics.

as soon as i get to a camera or get my phone turned back on... id like to find someone with a nice cam tho, the color is great.

[mizanation]

i love how cmf gets the same stuff we get for a fraction of the cost.

what do you guys think of tricker's. i love how they looks, very different from the shoes we have in the united states. next time i am in london, i will definitely get a pair.
