I have up for sale a wonderful pair of New old stock Alan Mcafee Black Wingtips for sale. They measure 11 3/4" from heel to toe and 4" wide at the widest point. I purchased these a while ago and forgot they were in my closet. They are a little to small for me. They have only been tried on once and on carpet. SOLD shipped in the US

Thanks for the kind words. I really feel like these are a steal at this price. They are a great classic design for business, IMO.

They really are...if they were a D width, I would have jumped at them at their original price.

Nerdy thanks. If they were a D width they would still live in my closet with the rest of the shoe family

Just so everybody knows, these shoes are identical to the analogous Church's model. Mcafee was a venerable old bespoke maker. At some point the brand seems to have been acquired by Church's and used as a workaround to exclusivity deals. Here in San Francisco, for example, you could buy Church's at the Church's store or you could buy McAfee at Bullock & Jones or I. Magnin--at that time the McAfee shoes likely had more cachet, but they really were the same shoes. So if a pair of NOS Church's shoes appeals to you, don't hesitate to pick these up.

That is what I started thinking after virtually no inquiries on them. I guess they will just remain in my closet, bored and feeling left out

Ebay. You might be able to mention Church's custom grade in the title of the auction provided the above description of the relationship to drive more business.
