The Shell Cordovan, non-Alden Shoe and Boot Thread

[minthe]

We can make a boot like that with Enzo Bonafè if you're willing to pay the custom pattern surcharge.

Thank you Leaves, very interesting! What would the total cost be if I may ask?

Does any have any photos of their black shells? I'm thinking of getting a pair of black shell oxfords. I looked in the thread but couldn't find very many pics. I prefer the look of burgundy and brown, typically, but I'd be buying the black pair more for their durability than their patina. Still, if anyone has any photos, I'd love to see how they age.

Yes Sir.

If you want the burgundy or Color 8 as Alden calls it, then I would go Alden indeed.

If you are looking for the Cognac or other lighter cordovan shades then go Carmina.

I am just trying to help.

Ha! Epaulet is making Shell Cordovan sneakers! ;-)

You may want to shop around some and see which vendor makes a LWB of the sleekness that you like.

Buy whatever fits. Alden offers widths, Carmina doesn't.
