Alden
Founded in Middleborough, Massachusetts in 1884, The Alden Shoe Company was one of the hundreds of American shoemakers based in New England during the 19th century. However, Alden’s refusal to lower quality standards or cater to the ever-increasing demand for cheaply made footwear has allowed them to remain in business for nearly 150 years. Today, The Alden Shoe Company is the only remaining New England shoemaker.
