I think Cambridge only comes in shell cordovan, and is thus more expensive.

The extra cost of the Cambridge is the fact they're made of shell cordovan which in itself is an expensive material. Search the forum for discussions on the benefits and properties of shell cordovan to see if cordovan is worth shelling out the extra money on.
