Alden D2926HC Arabica Lux Indy Boot

Purchased these sometime in 2024 as an upgrade/replacement for a 30-year old pair of 405's; as if I needed yet another pair of Indy's. There's been an anniversary or Christmas party that I've chosen to wear them; literally 2 or 3 times since purchasing them! In one of those times, I must've stepped off a curb or misjudged a step and it appears I've scratched the heel. Not something most would notice, but...we're shoe guys! Shouldn't be a problem to buff out. You've probably also noticed, the laces have been replaced with Iron Laces, as I do with all the Indy Boots I've ever owned. Don't ask where the original laces are...I've got a pile of shoe/boot laces that I'd have to spend a half a day going through to find them. I'd rather just buy you another pair, rather than go through that mess. Once you go Iron Laces...you'll likely not go back.Ok, if you've read this far, you know about this leather...and the hand sewn toe; and all the ins and outs of the Indy...Trubalance last, etc. , etc. - if you have a question, please reach out. These are being listed at a very reasonable opening bid; considering they're $822.00 on pre-sale now! If this is YOUR size, you can have these NOW at nearly half the cost of waiting for a new pair! Thanks for viewing!
