No such edict here. I found the walnut hues go very well with blue and a matching walnut belt. Those look killer and in great shape.

Very nice colour and medallion
Picked up a pair of moderately worn vintage Alden x BB shell cordovan tassel loafers for just $40! They have been resoled with a half sole, but still have the original heels which have about half of their life left. I have no clue how to date Alden shoes, but I would imagine these are at the very least 20 years old.
Those uppers look great! Was the vibram sole applied over the existing sole? If so, does that make them thicker than the normal double oak?

Agreed! Those will last @AHS through a nuclear winter and then the follow up zombie apocalypse.
I would appreciate some help here. I am trying to identify whether or not these are shell cordovan. I don't have the code, so I'm trying to judge these pictures. They have a rubber heel instead of the suicide cleat, and that black leather over the insole, which makes me think "probably not".
But the leather looks kind of "puffy" on the vamp near the wingtip, which makes me think "maybe".
What do you think?
