Sharing some Cigar Chukka love...
When the most recent crop of cigar LWBs went up at Shoemart, I said to myself "Dude, you have a perfectly good pair of deep brown cordovan Darlton shortwings that you actually wear on a regular basis. You don't need to drop another $650 just to have a nearly identical shoe in a longwing version."
interesting sole, hrrrmSole: Plantation Crepe with Leather Tip
Ahab, by "same shoe" I mean that it fulfills the same function within my wardrobe. To put it another way, it is a near-perfect substitute. The Alden cigar longwing would look good with any outfit with which I wear my brown cordo Darltons. Conversely, any situation in which my Darltons would not be appropriate would not be improved by wearing the Alden cigar longwings.
As I said it's not clear from the pictures what I'm talking about. Im aware that they are not meant to look perfect. In person it is clear that a section of finish has been stripped off and whatever material the welt is attached to has been gouged out. It looks like someone took a small screwdriver, jammed it into that material and wiggled it around. It is very hard to capture in pictures but I showed it to some friends and without mentioning the spot they all jumped on it immediately. 'Oh these are great, wait whats up with this?' Of course the scuffs are no big deal, I just find it obnoxious. If it was only the scuffs Id keep them in a second.
hey guys could you point me in the right direction for shoe tree for my aldens i need some bad thanks.
see my earlier post regarding rochester shoe trees.
Hm that's interesting. However I think we have different issues here. Your right boot has an area that's also whiteish but it looks like the lacquer was merely stripped off that area. That area on my boot is not only stripped of lacquer, the area itself is damaged. As I said it looks like a sharp objet was accidentaly jammed into it and moved around. Some areas are raised, others are deep, it looks like if you took a tree and jammed a screwdriver into it then wiggled it around. I have that same lacquer issue also, and if it was just that I would keep them as I could always just get that part refinished for cheap. However the fact that mine is also damaged means it can't be fixed easilly.
