    Alden shell wingtip plaza last size 11.5 or 12

    Thanks for the tip! - but I'm actually hoping to find this exact model. What really catches my eye is the broguing on the side. Elegant as hell and not something I've seen anywhere else.

    Alden shell wingtip plaza last size 11.5 or 12

    Hi all, I'm looking for a pair of Alden shell wingtips on the plaza last in 11.5 or 12. I think the one I want was an exclusive to Pelleline.com, which only has a few sizes left in stock and not one I can use. Their style number is 96080 and you can see the model here...

    2/24 DROP Barely-worn C&J for Ralph Lauren shell cordovan Marlow's - 11D

    Do these run true to size, or are they like Alden on the barrie last, running a half size large?

    Alden for J Crew fit?

    Hi all, Anyone have any experience with the Alden for J Crew shoes? I'm interested in a pair of longwings from them on the Barrie last. I know the usual thing to do with these is to size down one half, but does anyone know whether J Crew has 'corrected' the fit for the shoes they get from...

    What should I wear with navy blue wingtips?

    Hey all, I just saw these awesome new longwings in navy blue -- but what on earth would I wear them with? Navy blue trousers? Khaki? It's a lot of money to drop for shoes that I already have in black and cigar...but I might do it if I can think of a cool combo. Check them out...

    Wingtips with cords?

    Hi guys, Would you (should I) wear brown or burgundy wingtips with cords? I'm thinking of getting some really nice tailored cords to wear to the office this fall but can't figure what shoes I should wear with them.

    How do you remove shoe trees?

    Oh yeah - calfskin black.

    How do you remove shoe trees?

    Calfskin. I actually really wanted the alden shells, but i tried on both last week and the two shoes, to the naked eye, are totally indistinguishable. I guess over the years there will be some difference in performance, but at literally half the price these seem good to me. That said, I think...

    How do you remove shoe trees?

    Yep - it does look like that, though I couldn't see it until you guys clued me in to the lip. So I'm an idiot, I admit it. The good news is that I the shoes -- AE MacNeil -- look like a million bucks.

    How do you remove shoe trees?

    Thanks, I didn't realize there is/should be a lip. And to the rest of you, thanks very much for your support!

    How do you remove shoe trees?

    Gawd, i can't believe I have to ask, but here goes. I received a pair of nice shoes today and they arrived with shoe trees already in them. How the heck do you get them out? A shoe horn to pop the back side forward? (There are no handles or knobs or anything.)

    ***The official Alden thread *** Share enthusiasm, reviews, sizing, advice, and photos.

    And now that I think about it, actually, maybe this is the best place to ask. Is anyone tired of a pair of barrie-lasted Aldens, size 11d, that they'd want to sell? I'm looking for either longwings or chukkas, and would entertain any reasonable offers.

    ***The official Alden thread *** Share enthusiasm, reviews, sizing, advice, and photos.

    Thanks; I find myself in the unenviable position of finding that I fit in 2 different sizes, one slightly tighter (a bigger but narrower size) but still a good fit, the other slightly looser (my usual size) but still a good fit. Of course I'm agonizing before dropping 600 plus for a pair of...
