The pictures say it all. Can shoes be considered works of art? You tell me. Perfection....

My loss is your gain. I purchased the wrong size. I had these made at a cost approaching 1k dollars. I'm selling these at a dramatically reduced price because there is a half size difference in these shoes. The LEFT IS US SIZE 11. THE RIGHT IS US SIZE 10.5.

These are CARMINAS and are lasted on the DETROIT LAST. KNOW YOUR SIZE! (Unlike me! LOL). I WILL NOT EXCEPT RETURNS! IF YOU BID YOU ARE ACKNOWLEDGING THE 1/2 SIZE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE LEFT AND RIGHT SHOE!


I would describe the color (of the cap toe) to be between cigar and revallo. They are beautiful, they are sturdy, they are unique, you will have them a lifetime! My loss is your gain. I had these MTO at close to 1k dollars. I'm selling them at a loss because there is a 1/2 size difference between the left and right shoe. THE LEFT SHOE IS A US 11. THE RIGHT SHOE IS A US 10.5.



These shell cordovan shoes are made by CARMINA lasted on the Detroit last. KNOW YOUR SIZE. I will not accept returns!


I don't have much feedback but I have the same listing on eBay. (angelomishio4rdg) I'm offering these at a 10% reduced price since I will not have to pay eBay's seller fees (10%). I also have some Alden's listed there and will offer them at 10% discount as well. When I have a chance, I will post those shoes for sale as well.

540.00$ for each pair and shipping will be at cost. I can ship internationally- I have before but I can not be responsible for lost shipments and highly recommend tracking (but that does get expensive).

Are the Carmina LWB's also 1/2 size different, or both 10UK? Copy is confusing and 1/2 sized pair seems like it's just the Aldens.

Hello. I'm sorry about the confusing copy...I'm gonna try to redo it later today. I had a hard time getting the pics to load and had to keep redoing it...after a couple of hours, I didn't care anymore...just get it up...anyway let me clarify:

Aldens- US size 11D both shoes. BNIB. First quality. Never worn...purchased 6 months ago. Really great color cigar is some variations but not so much that it looks off...these shoes will look awsome with some patina. I will make make NO profit off this sale. I selling them for what I have into them.

Carminas: this is wear the size difference comes in. I had these MTO in a 1/2 size difference. The LEFT shoe is US11 and the RIGHT shoe is US10.5. These shoes are amazing. The whiskey looks 10 times better in your hands then in the pics. Spent nearly 1K on each pair. I am selling at a discount bc of the sizing difference.

I hope this clarifies everything. Thanks in advance...

Thanks for pointing that out. If anyone is a US size 11D and want to increase their exotic shell collection this is it...The real winner of these 3 pairs is the Whiskey LWBs...they are just stunning...when I said "works of art" that's really true statement...outstanding craftsmanship...
