All Weather Walkers Sticky Soles
Who's had problems with Alden crepe soles being overly gummy or sticky ? I just got Like New AWWs from Ebay and every bit of rug lint clings to them. They cost $100 less a $40 refund for not-as-described issues. The uppers are fabulous. I'm going to a cobbler for replacements. Also...- lowbudgetsnob

The Official Alden Thread for 2016 - Share reviews, sizing, advice, and photos.
I once went 1/2 size down for a pair of Barrie's and the fit was horrible with weight bearing areas mismatched to my feet. Then i read that regarding large last shoes, VOLUME is more important. I am usually 11D in oxfords and sometimes 11.5 D in casuals. I just got a pair of ALL Weather...- lowbudgetsnob

Cheaney sizing, stand alone ?
Just got some last dimensions for several sizes from Cheaney. It seems that I would need to go down 1.0 or 1.5 sizes from US to Cheaney instead of the usual 0.5 to 1.0 for US to UK. Also, the rep insists that a US E width corresponds best to their medium or average F fitting. Does Cheaney use a...- lowbudgetsnob

Allen Edmonds vs. Alden--Which American Great Do You Prefer?!! OFFICIAL
Alden for me. They just look better. Do they do something to prep their leathers prior to the dye and finish process ? Why do AE 4 BB, with BB badging, often look better than AE's own products ? Dove tail heels on AE ! ? With comparable styles, yes, Alden costs more. Are labor costs a...- lowbudgetsnob

Are "premium" socks worth it?
How do you make Gold Toes last that long ?. Do you have a very large sock supply for rotation or are you wearing a larger size to compenate for shrinkage ? Being at the top of the 10-13 sock size range, Gold Toe crews hole out in the heel in 6 to 9 months for me.- lowbudgetsnob

Alden comfort, what you pay for ?
My experience with two pair of Alden dress or dress/casual shoes makes me hesitant to buy another pair. Both pair were EUC, hardly worn, from Ebay. First, a pair of Welterweights ( cousin of the All Weather Walker) was a miserable clunker. Then, a pair of medallion cap toes, the famous 909...- lowbudgetsnob

It's a Tudor but is it worth it ?
A fine looking vintage Tudor is on the bay. Seller wants $595. It has a 2824-1 movement and a plastic crystal. Seems high for an "industrial" movement and a cheap replacement crystal.- lowbudgetsnob

Trickers, Brooks Brothers, Cheaney, Alden ?
At long last I am able to fill a void in my minimal shoe base. I'm looking for brown, tan, maple captoe dress shoes. The best my budget can do seems to come down to four choices : 1.
