Beach Bum submitted a new listing:

Santoni Shell Cordovan Goodyear Oxfords - Burgundy Size 13 - Extremely Rare - Brand New Santoni Shell!

Love these shoes, but after much deliberating they are just a size or so too large for me. These await a lucky buyer.

Santoni has only made Shell Cordovan shoes a few times over the years. As the oval piece says the leather is from Chicago's Horween Leather Company. They are Made in Italy.

Goodyear construction. Very heavy / well made. Burgundy color. Beautiful burgundy/purple leather soles. As noted earlier these are very rare/limited.

Size 13 but these run long. External...

I assume you are a 13 on the Brannock? Also, how snug (in width) is the heel?

I own like six pairs of Santoni and they vary 12-13. In all cases I could fit in 12 and wouldn't be too tight. I have a high instep / arched feet which makes me wear shoes a size bigger often.

In the case of these shoes they should probably be closer to a 14. They are also a bit wide though are not "EE" throughout. Heel a bit too along with toe box as I wrote in the original post.

Also I have an interested buyer so these are probably going to be gone soon if interested.
