In addition to shoes made on specialized lasts that will accommodate extreme foot shapes, the Alden Foot Balance System includes general purpose comfort lasts. The shoes built on these lasts feature the enhanced support characteristic of Alden Foot Balance Shoes: sturdy Goodyear Welt construction, extended counters, and heavy duty steel shanks. They provide shoe fitters an opportunity to offer attractive, well balanced dress shoes with complete forepart freedom and firm heel control.   The Trutred Last offers a maximum of heel control and forepart freedom. With a broad ball tread, theTru-Tred Last provides extra prescription accommodation throughout the plantar area along with an appealing toe expression.   The Trusquare is a square toe dress shoe last. It offers excellent heel control even in cases of extreme pronation, and a slightly wider toe.   As with all Alden Foot Balance System Lasts, there is a vast difference from ordinary style lasts. In combination with proper pattern design, balanced construction, and Alden's commitment to the highest standards in materials and craftsmanship, these shoes stand above all others in providing comfort and style.
