Alden remains one of the finest and oldest skilled shoe and boot-maker from New England which prospered by relying not on lower quality mass-markets but on high quality dress shoes and excelling in their comfortable , orthopedically correct lasts. Alden is widely known for their whole-cut, hand dyed tanned cordovan leather shoes, which contours to your foot shape giving a truly custom quality to the fit .  A pair of Aldens will last you for generations and is indeed a must have for the modern man today.
