I think it's interesting that they don't even mention that it does not have what we call "Abnäher" (darts)...

Re: Ivy in...Germany
So what's the story with Alden shoes in Germany? I've heard that they are or were pretty popular... in a non-Ivy context, I imagine?

Re: Ivy in...Germany
Yes, a non-Ivy context...
A posh shop in Cologne for example stocks them for 680 Euros, but...
edit: for psst, pm if u want...
Most big cities have Alden and Allen Edmonds, I guess.

Re: Ivy in...Germany
A great thread... Really great. Much pleasure reading it! "College Look" - hahaha... Yes. I came to Ivy via the "College Look", I didn't even knew the term "preppy" until 2008... "College Slippers" - for Weejuns...
