Alden 45149HC Black Shell Cordovan Plain Toe Boot

I very much want to keep these but my feet have gotten wider as I’ve aged and they simply don’t fit me comfortably. In excellent used condition, with hardly a mark to see. Great and versatile makeup featuring black metal eyelets and speedhooks, and rubber commando half soles and heel caps. Coolest part is the Horween stamping behind one of the tongues as pictured. Would gladly trade for same in an e width or sz 10 😅😪 MSRP is just shy of $1k at this point, so here’s your chance at a pair at a fraction of the cost.

Alden x Blackbird Chistopherson’s Creamery Milkman Boot, size 12. Black cordovan leather. Low profile combat sole. Plain toe. Barrie last. Some light scuffing but in overall great shape and shines up amazingly. Nowadays, these would retail for around $1000. Of course, Blackbird is no longer open so this make-up is very hard to find. https://porhomme.com/2009/12/blackbird-x-alden-christophersons-creamery-milkman-boot/ Designed by Blackbird in collaboration with Alden of New England, the Christopherson’s Creamery Milkman Boot brings back memories of a neighborhood icon – the milkman. Inspired by the shiny simple uniform boots that so many delivery drivers wore back in the day when milk and groceries were delivered, the boot pulls additional inspiration from Christopherson’s Creamery, a local Ballard dairy shop, just around the corner from where Blackbird is located today. Blackbird suggests you polish yours to a high gloss and wear them with sharply tailored trousers, or beat them up, lace them half-way, and wear them with whatever. This boot is cut sharp to accommodate a number of looks and built tough as nails for a life of hard, dedicated service.
