Alden Brooks Brothers 740 Shell Cordovan Tassel Loafers Black 11.5 D RARE

For your consideration, I am offering these Alden for Brooks Brothers Shell Cordovan Tassel Loafers in black. They are model number 740 in size 11 1/2 D. They feature the distinct heel stitching only found on the Brooks/Alden model tassel loafers.
These are an ultimate IYKYK shoe.
Brooks ended their longstanding collaboration with Alden half decade ago during their bankruptcy and they no longer make these shoes. Thus, there are a finite number of them left in the “wild,” especially in common sizes like this. They are RARE.
Condition - good overall. The shell is superb and basically unmarked, well brushed, and properly cared for. The sole has lots of life left before a resole is needed. The inside shows some wear, mostly because Alden uses white sock liners in their black shoes. The interior is the only reason I would designate these “good” rather than “great.”
Please feel free to ask questions, make offers, etc.
NOTE: Shoe trees are NOT included with item, simply for display purposes in photos.

Thank you for viewing this listing. If you have questions, PLEASE ask me and I will do my best to provide answers ASAP so that you know exactly what you are purchasing. I do not take returns but am more than happy to provide additional pictures, info, or measurements. I know it’s frustrating to receive an item that isn’t quite right, so I’m happy to help you avoid that.
This and my other listings are priced to sell, but I am open to considering (reasonable) offers. Feel free to make an offer. I know a fair amount about these garments and want them to go to a good new home.
I am more than happy to bundle shipping if you purchase more than one item.
ALL items are freshly cleaned (either by hand, laundry, or dry cleaning per instructions on item) and are stored in a pet-free, smoke-free, and pest-free home.
My items for sale have been carefully cared for by me and are simply items that I’ve acquired and am clearing from my closet of because they either don’t fit correctly or I don’t wear enough to keep. My listings tend to be more ivy/trad/militaria themed clothing items. Thank you!
