This hashtag thing is new here, not sure what tbt means, but let's be honest... Shell is Alden's meal ticket. If you want a calf shoe of similar quality there are other places to look for less money.

Hey guys, just received these boots. Any info on them? I am pleasantly surprised by the color of them, kinda look more like cigar than #8. I really do like them. Gotta spend some time with my bone and brush. I was told they were the Epaulet Brixton boot in #8.

They do look like the Brixton's on the Barrie Last. very nice makeup. A little Mac method and they will give you years of pleasure

These are quite special. Even in Calf!

Where did you score these from?

Got those a long time ago from Shoe Mart. I've got a black calf pair too.

#tbt -When this thread was about everything Alden, not just rare shell.

I feel like there has been quite a lot of the non shell variety today.

FWIW The only BB store I've been in that knew anything of Alden lasts and/or shell cordovan was at the BB on the mean streets of Greenwich, CT.

nephew,
Greenwich street is a great place to shop
