The “Meadowlark” Plain Toe Boot is made exclusively for Brick + Mortar. This boot was made using a tried-and-true brown Chromexcel from the famous Horween tannery. Known for its softness, durability, and resiliency to the elements, Chromexcel is an ideal choice for casual, rugged footwear. Packed with waxes and oils, the leather is easy to maintain and will develop a rich patina with wear. With brown tonal stitching, brown eyelets, a 360 pre-stitched antique reverse welt all constructed on the Trubalance Last, the “Meadowlark” Plain Toe Boot was designed to be your simple, no-brainer option when needing a high-quality, brown boot.

Alden footwear is crafted using Goodyear Welt construction, which allows for a full restoration when necessary and a water resistant build. A tempered steel shank under the arch and a cork fill provides remarkable support and comfort throughout the day.

Shoe Size Guide

Size down ½ Size (US 9.5D = Alden 9D)

The Trubalance last runs a 1/2 size larger than your standard US shoe size. The toe box is slightly wider than the Barrie last, but shallower. The heel cup is also narrower than Barrie’s, so while the Trubalace is wider-looking than Barrie, the fit is very secure. If you have narrow feet, sizing down a full size in the Trubalance last is common.
