This is the season of unpredictable weather. There’s nothing worse than lacing up your favorite dress shoes only to get caught in a downpour. Alden’s All Weather Walker in Brown Alpine Grain Calfskin is for those cloudy days of April and May. It’s an everyday shoe, made for comfortable, good-looking ease. It’s soft plantation crepe [...]
Our trunk show with Alfred Sargent was a great success thanks to everyone that came by. Below are some photos of the action:
Our Alfred Sargent Trunk Show is tomorrow and we couldn’t be more excited. Just to whet your appetite, here’s a little taste of the large selection of samples available for viewing at the show.

Our Alfred Sargent Trunk Show is coming up this Thursday, April 12th, and here is yet another example of their excellent craftsmanship. Warm weather means brighter and more vibrant colors. There is no better shoe to liven up your seasonal palette than our new Alfred Sargent Henry wingtip in Burnished Cherry. It’s classic style and [...]
There are a lot of wingtips, but like everything Pierre Corthay makes, the Vendome wingtip is in a class of its own. This shoe is all about angles and curves: its broguing follows winding lines from the wingtip front to the side panels to the heel counter. The Vendome’s sloping modern shape is the perfect [...]
As you probably know, we love Horween’s Natural Chromexcel leather. It’s got a great, light color, it’s durable, its dynamic, and it gets better with age. It’s no surprise that we’ve made another shoe with it. This time around its the boat moc by Quoddy. This is a great casual shoe for the spring and [...]
We’re excited about these new double monks strap shoes from G&G. We first set eyes on them at our trunk show last October and we knew we had to have them for our stock. Made on the sharp square TG73 last in Midnight calfskin these babies are for rocking out in suits or jeans. The [...]
Made in Northampton, England by Church’s & Co, these brogues have loads of style. They are a bit of a dandy shoe you might say. First re-issued in 2010, the Kaber has become a long standing fixture at our store. Both styles, one is brown nevada calf, and another in both black pebble grain and [...]

Alden’s 1493 chukka is the perfect spring and summer shoe. The bright snuff suede and dynamic natural edging are the perfect addition to the vibrant colors of the season. The unlined leather allows for one of the softest shoes you will find, as well as a cool, breathable feel, making for an ideal shoe for [...]
Our trunk show with Alfred Sargent is coming up on April 12th. We thought we might show you one of the benefits of the Made to Order process. Below are variations on Alfred Sargent’s Alex boot, a stylish Jodhpur based on boots once used for riding horses and part of their Handgrade Collection. The use [...]
The most popular shoes tend to be those that are truly of their own kind and impossible to replicate. Aubercy’s Lawrence button boot is one of those shoes. This sleek, elegant captoe boot combines suede and calfskin for a nuanced middle between the casual and the formal. This ease translates to its fit as well, [...]
