Anyone know of a place where i can currently find a pair of #8 SWB's w/ antique edging and double oak sole, Plaza last size 10d. I have checked all the major stores/site i know to look and i can't find them. I think Brogue has a pre-order for early 2020, but i'd prefer not to wait 6 months. Places i've checked:

AoM
AoC
B&M
Brogue
Leffot
ShoeMart
LeatherSoul

Not sure if you can do a 10.5D in plaza, but these are on Ebay and might be an option if you can swing a 10.5. They aren't my listing, but the listing of a fellow forum member that I'm sure you could get connected with if they would happen to work.

Alden Shell Cordovan Short Wingtip Plaza Antique 10.5D Color 8 Made in USA | eBay

Condition is very very good. There is a tiny superficial nick in the outer wingtip area of the left shoe (pinky toe area - see pic #9 and zoom in) that is very small and hardly noticeable at all. I only wish to fully disclose that this pair isn't 100% flawless, yet is still in fantastic condition.

Thanks for the heads up. I wish i could do 10.5, but that is a bit too big for me.

Had the pleasure of making my first visit to an Alden retailer last week. Visited Steve Yoo at Gentlemen's Footwear in San Diego. Living in Idaho doesn't give me any access to local Aldens so it was fun to see an Alden shop in person.
