Alden

Charles Alden founded his company in 1884 in southeastern Massachusetts, the center of the American shoe industry at the time. Little by little, the competition shrank, moved abroad, or went bankrupt. Alden Shoes stood firm and is now America's oldest manufacturer of high-quality men's shoes. The family business is committed to traditional craftsmanship, makes no compromises in the choice of materials, and strives for the highest level of comfort. Even today, every pair is made by hand, elaborately welted, and the durable leather is sourced exclusively from Horween Leather Co.
