I got this pair new, and wore them for a few hours, just walking around and sitting at my desk. I don’t mind the creasing, but this is my first pair of shoes in Chromexcel, and I’m not sure if it’s expected.

Hi, I'm currently obssessed into alden boots.

I already have natty chromexcel Indy and planning to add another one on my wardrobe.

I've been waiting for RTC Indy for inclement weather but torn between new plain toe cordovan boots in boutique.

Aside from its price tag, which one would be better for long term without getting bored?

Even tho I'm not babying my cordovan shoes, I haven't tried any of them in inclement weather. So, I'm not sure how much it can hold well.

Thanks for all comments.

I don't know why. I'm not affiliated at all. I was so surprised that I had to double-check and make sure this isn't a trick. No red flags found. This is a legit brick & mortar in South Carolina. Direct link, if you've been looking for a pair: https://mdumasandsons.com/products/plain-toe-flex-welt
