I just received a new pair - black unlined LHS.

But now that I have them in hand the dark stitching makes me think these black LHS are distinct enough and will look great with gray trousers.

My LHS family: snuff suede, ravello, color 8, black

And my version of the shell rainbow:
whiskey LWB, ravello LHS, cigar LWB, color 8 LWB, black LHS

thank you for posting your good looking shoe wardrobe. enjoy wearing your black lhs in good health

Do you know if the Alden of San Francisco Ravello LWB have black edge trim or natural/antique edge trim?  

 

Thanks!

My guess is natural. My PTB's come from ASF and they are natural.

Thanks!

They have dark edge trim.  I'm sure because I have a pair of their Ravello LWB.  For that matter, their Ravello PTBs also have dark trim.

need some help alden bro's..

 

my father mentioned recently that his daily pair of shoes aren't too comfortable. they're some off brand, cheap black "office acceptable" laceups.. he's always laughing at my new alden pickups, but mentioned that "maybe I'd benefit from a pair"..

 

does Alden offer anything where style might play second fiddle to comfort? I have access to alden DC so will likely bring him in for a fitting/purchase, just trying to gather some notes..

 

thanks in advance!

The Trubalance and Modified last are actually part of Alden's orthopedic line.

I'm getting rid of the pair of #8 J Crew LWBs with the crepe sole I just received. I wanted the antique welt as shown on the website, but they came black. PM me if you want them at a discount to retail before I return them. Size 10.
