A quick comparison: Alden 990 vs. AE Leeds - both in #8 Shell cordovan. The AE was bought in 2013 the Alden in 2006 - both of them have seen tons of wear and got a nice little brushing (Reno + Alden paste Wax) before the video. If you have any questions, feel free to ask! Cheers and thanks for watching!

I owned them both, and what you say ist exactly what i'd describe as the difference between these shoes! Nice video.

Great comparison breakdown. Thank you. Both shoes look fantastic.

I just ordered a pair of these same Allen Edmunds in black. Very much looking forward to them. I hate broguing and don't love cap toes so this to my taste is the perfect versitle shoe design. Saphir is second to none in care products...

If i had money i would buy both of those nice shoes. Very beautiful.

Both companies make great shoes. Generally, AE looks better and Alden is more comfortable. Consequently, and I feel a bit shallow for admitting it, but I prefer AE.

Great comprehensive comparison of both models. I rarely use paste wax or Saphir on my shell cordovan. Mainly brushing and buffing. Had a question: which one of the two feels hotter on your feet? I have some shoe videos on my channel. Check them out. Thanks and keep up with the reviews.

I think both of them are nice looking shoes though I like the look of the Allen Edmonds myself.

How's sizing between these two?

@ers-tj4to 7 месяцев назад

Allen Edmonds is more or less a suit shoe whereas Alden is more of a Harris tweed or any type of textured wool type of shoe.

do you find any difference in the wear and comfort of the leather/under cork foot bed between the two? that's most important to me I choosing which to buy. thanks.

Daniel Kirschner To me, the AE footbed "breakes in" a lot quicker, but then in the long run feels a bit stiffer. Broken in well, Both of them are equally comfortable. But compared to AE, the aldens somehow feel like bricks on your feet. One may like it or not. I do!
