What are your favorite pair of shell cordovan shoes?

[jeskali]

Let's hear it

 

[Mr T]

Polo Darlton Wingtips. I kick myself for not buying these during the last sale. I kick myself again for not buying Brian's (Shoe's) pair as he liquidated his stash.

Of what I have:

I also want a pair of:

 

[Jeff Naylor]

Alden whiskey longwings. Love 'em.

 

[Teacher]

I have only one pair: Allen Edmonds Cambridge in #8 shell. Gorgeous. But what I REALLY SUPER-DUPER want is a pair of cap toe bluchers in whiskey shell.

 

[JayJay]

Alden longwings in all colors available - black, #8, Whiskey, Revello, and Cigar. I also like the RL Darlton wingtip, but my Alden's are my favorites.

 

[Grayland]

Polo Marlow (plain toe blucher in dark brown). My first, and so far, only pair of cordovan shoes. Had a choice between them and the Polo Dalton Wingtips for the same price. I still covet the Dalton, but felt the Marlow was more versatile for me. Damn, that Dalton looks great though, huh?

Alden of Carmel is where I bought mine; however, I'm not sure they currently have them in stock.

I just bought my first pair

They went for $300.00 on Ebay. Did I get a decent deal? They are beautiful to me, and I think that I got a lot better deal than going to Nordstroms and buying some mediocre looking calfskin AEs.

I've had a number of shell cordovans, but never seem to keep them. The only one I wear consistently is the Polo Oxnard boot. You can see an example of it here:

My Alden 4060's. They had lots of wear this last Fall/Winter.

I have a Cigar pair on reserve for an order that should be due in the next 30 days or so. Email Adam and see if you're size is available from that run.
