Closet clean out and consolidation; hopefully good prices to move these!

Seling these barely used unlined navy suede LHS. Worn maybe 10 times, you can see by the wear they've barely been used. These are an 8D and are pretty snug at that size. They will stretch with wear but are pretty tight to begin with, just FYI. These are perfect summer sickles shoes for someone who wears an 8D Van. Got these from Harrys shoes and they're out of stock now. With the dearth of LHS coming only versions of these ive seen lately have been the machine stitched ones; these are the originals.

Asking $400.00 shipped CONUS. No trees.

Last pair: snuff suede Villager boot from Leffot. 360 welt with double leather soles on TB last-one of the most versatile possible shoes. Just duplicative in my collection so I never wear them anymore, it feels. Lots of life left for new owners. Some 8D TB last. Please see all pics for wear., Heels may need replacing soon if you heel strike, if you don't they'll last a long time still. I heel strike something bad in boots and it took almost 3 years to get to this level. Currently sold out at Leffot. comes with box and bags. I have a pair of waxed laces sitting around I'll throw in.

Putting these up for sale.
Cigar Indys from Zahner's (40564H), Trubalance 9.5D. These are a great shade if Cigar but I am just not wearing them nearly enough and they should be appreciated.

I'd say at most these have 8 wears on them with a good majority being in a hotel at a conference.
I am going to put the price at $850, but I will entertain offers. Box bags, everything included.
Still available. Make me an offer!

Up for sale is a new pair of Ealdwine Boone Boots in a 6EEE on the Barrie last. I wore them around the house for an hour or so and have decided to stick with suede for my Alden boots. These come as new. Asking $525.00 shipped.

Based on old listings from the Alden model
Project, it looks like these may have been made for the Bureau Belfast? They are very nice. I wish some of my tankers were on the trubalance last. Much more comfy for me!

Alden of Carmel used to do a Tanker on TB as well. Strange as the design aesthetics are a better fit (IMO) for TB. Surprised you don’t see more retailers sell this design.

Correct! These are an old Bureau of Belfast makeup. No longer made. I think Alden SF had a Trubalance Tanker at one point as well.
