: Hi,
: I'm wanting to get a pair of Alden #405 boots, but I haven't yet found an Alden dealer in the area. I've been bouncing through the internet emailing different Alden dealers, but no one's returned an email to date.
: Does anyone have a recommended dealer for Aldens, and their price? How much is too much to pay? What price is a good price?
: Thanks,
: Leslie
I went through their San Francisco store and ordered by phone. They were very helpful. The #405's run about 1/2 size large, so if you wear an 11 1/2, they'll suggest going with an 11 - and they're right. Mine were $190, + $15 for 2 day UPS - they actually ship from the Massachusetts facility.
Best shoes of ANY kind I've ever owned. More comfortable then my Nike's. Well worth the $205, but if you can get cheaper then more power to you!
