—01. Made in USA.
—02. 100% leather.

Words

The Indy Boot deserves all due respect, but Alden's handful of plain toe boot styles have always seemed handsomely utilitarian and classically well-designed. The burnished black leather and durable Commando sole make this option a versatile companion to most outfits.

—01. 100% New Wool.

Words

Soft, lightweight sweaters garner all of the respect in the knitwear world, but there are times when one can trust in the assurance of the heavy knit and durable nature of sweaters that have been produced for maritime use. This Danish design is also symmetrical, so there's no chance of putting it on the wrong way around.
