The "I've Never Been There Before" Boot

Why do we call this the "I've Never Been There Before" Boot? Let us paint a picture for you.

Scene 1

Your friends invite you to check out a new bar that just opened in the city. 

It's the dead of winter in New England, and despite a few internet searches, you weren't able to find any info on the new bar. You know it's likely you'll have to park further away and walk. You have no idea what to wear and you're thinking that it's much too cold outside to go out and you should probably just go somewhere you've been before... until you spot your new boots. 

The Black Shell Cordovan is laid back enough, but will really make a statement to the discerning eye. Plus, the Commando sole offer some traction and insulation from the cold city streets. You can wear thicker socks to keep warm. 

Scene 2

You're visiting a new city on family vacation with your parents and your kids. You've never been there before, but your father suggests you take the kids to the zoo. If it rains, you can go to the art museum nearby instead. 

You're glad you packed your Commando sole boots. It will be much better than the leather soles on your wing tips over the uneven outdoor paths at the zoo, even in a light drizzle. You've even packed some Alden Leather Defender, just in case. Plus, these things are a real work of art. If the weather is too bad, they'll fit right in at the museum! 

Scene 3

It's your anniversary. Your better half asks if the wing tips you're wearing really go with those pants.

The wing tips are your favorite. You could bring up the time she told you that you spent too much money on shoes... but you've been there before.

Instead, you pick your black shell cordovan boots out of the closet and smile. "What about these?"
