For your consideration:
A pair of used Alden Cigar shell cordovan LWBs (long wing bluchers), size 10.5D on the Barrie last. I purchased these new, direct from Alden of Carmel.
These shoes have the normal wear and tear on the uppers, soles and heels. There may be a spot of slight discoloration on the top of the right shoe -- which I tried to capture in the close-up -- but I only noticed it when taking the photos, and some cordovan paste wax would probably do the trick if it's an issue. That said, these are fantastic looking shoes with a ton of life left in them. I wouldn't be selling them except for the fact that the Barrie last doesn't seem to work for me in this size. These shoes have always been maintained by regular brushing, treatment with Saphir's Reno or Alden's Fine Boot Cream as needed, and always keeping them with cedar shoe trees.
Asking price is only $450 to account for wear. Shoe bags and box are included in the sale price, as is insured / tracked shipping via USPS. Shoe trees are not included in the sale. As always, know your size, as I can't take returns.
Thanks.
