Alden Shoes – Flex Chukka Boot

If you haven’t tried the Alden Flex Welt series, you don’t know what you’re missing…

Single leather soles are given a special oil bath which gives the these flex soles special properties. Not only are they much more flexible than standard leather soles, they’re more durable, more comfortable, and are great on slippery or wet surfaces.

Our Leather Soul Exclusive Flex Chukka Boot goes great in any dress casual to casual situation. It also makes a wonderful wet weather beater shoe.

Extremely soft and supple tumbled lady calf adds to the comfort of these must own American classics.

Available in Burgundy and Black.

Alden Shoes – The Leather Soul Ultimate Indy Boot

One of the most highly anticipated Leather Soul Exclusive models is finally here!

The Leather Soul Ultimate Indy Boot is our take on the ever popular Alden #405 that Harrison Ford wears in the Indiana Jones movie series. Our release of the Ultimate Indy comes right as the newest Indiana Jones movie is also to be released.

Our Ultimate Indy is made on the same Tru-Balance last, available in Rich Dark Brown or Black Aniline Calfskin (coming soon), and with a Leather and Commando Rubber Sole. It is made to Alden New England standards, just as the dress shoes are, which is a higher standard than the regular #405 Indy. You’ll notice full leather linings, higher grade materials, and general quality improvements from the Foot Balance line.
