Alden 90350 Mahogany Shell Cordovan Wing Tip Bal

Folks we have here the first of many genuine shell cordovan shoes and boots that I am going to list. I have been addicted to shell cordovan for over 4 decades and am now retired from office work and need to put them into other hands. I have Allen Edmonds, Alden, various top shelf English makers, all in excellent condition. My shoe collection is immense, which means each particular pair got very very little use over the years. Also, for most of their lives, I lived and worked on the West Coast of the USA which means these never saw inclement weather of any sort. A few rules to know. If a shoe came with McAfee heels, they were always replaced day one with vibram or similar regular rubber heels. McAfee heels are pretty, but also pretty useless, even dangerous. Next, I learned many years ago to have what are variously called ”sole guards”, ”toppies” or such. These transform the beautiful leather soles into something actually wearable, and safe in any situation or weather. They also last essentially forever, eliminating resoling. Both of these rules do not come cheap, heel replacement and soleguards together are over a hundred dollars, but worth it on a pair of $1K shell cordovan shoes.Next, I always used top quality polish, either correct paste or semi-paste. No Kiwi junk here (although their edge dressing is ok). Either Lincoln, or Angelus, or Meltonian. Properts when it was available also. Always kept shoe trees in every shoe, day one. For years, kept boxes, but got to be too much and had custom shelves made. Shell Cordovan is the best there is, lasts decades, very comfortable, looks like a million bucks, and makes one feel the same. This listing is for a pair of whisky shell that was once offered as a one off by ShoeMart in Connecticut. They were, and are, one of the top Alden purveyors in the world. On occasion, they would do a custom run. The leather is probably French, as almost all whisky colored shell was. If you know shell, you know that essentially only a very small handful of tanneries produce it. Horween in Chicago, in France, one in Japan and one in Italy. Take a look at the details in these shoes. They are a modified wing tip, narrower and trimmer looking than a traditional wing. If available today, would be well over a grand in price. I may have a pair of shoe bags for these. No box. Know your size in Alden, no returns. Price includes shoe trees that were born with these, and ground shipping in the USA. Together, a $75. value. These are shell cordovan folks, with next to no wear, and decades of life in them. I am listing several shoes at a time, if you are a 9.5B and are a shell cordovan nut, message me with your interests. If international, message me and I will try to accommodate you---do this before buying. Thank you

*RARE* Men's ALDEN AF 2 Mahogany Shell Cordovan Aberdeen Wingtip Balmoral Formal/Dress Shoe. STYLE #90350. These are in EXCELLENT~LIKE NEW condition. I don't believe these have every been worn, just tried on and show a bit of shelf wear. I read that these are an ABERDEEN-LAST wingtip Balmoral in Mahogany Shell. Mahogany Shell is no longer used by Alden anymore. There is an R in a circle on the bottom of shoes, which I am not quite sure if they were rejected or something to do with returning them. The shoes are like Mint, but the only issue that I see is that the right shoe has some scuffed leather on the inside and near the top of collar of shoe not visible while wearing, which could be what the R is for. See pics. Lace up closure. Double leather outsoles with dovetailed heels. Genuine leather insoles. Goodyear Welt. A Superior High Quality shoe, from the finest craftsmen. Made in the USA.Size 8 C/E. Truly a collectible shoe. Please see all pictures as they are also part of the description. DESCRIPTION- I try to describe each item to the best of my ability.

I have stored these shoes in a plastic box since I received them. New full cedar Rochester Washburn shoe trees (sold by Johnston and Murphy) are included.
