Very nice condition. Light to moderate wear. Please look at all images. Soles are still very thick and have several years left. Some acute outer edge heel drag but this does not affect gait and walk ability - see last image for detail. No tears in cordovan leather. Please know your Alden 974 sizing. These are in the Tremont last which fits true to size. See image #12 for details about the Tremont last these are built upon. Listing is for shoes only - I do not have the original box any longer but always stuff each shoe and then wrap with cling wrap prior to boxing. These are now over $900 a pair for a new pair. Shell cordovan will last a lifetime with light maintenance.

Alden New England Shell Cordovan Wingtip Bal Oxford Men’s Size: US 10 B/D Model: 974 Color: Burgundy (Color 8) No box. Shoe trees shown in the photos ARE included. Material: Genuine Shell Cordovan Leather Some scuffs, stains and creases on both surfaces. Some wear and stains on the inside. This is a pair of Alden authentic cordovan (burgundy) shell cordovan shoes in size 10 B/D. This shoe is known as the ”Wingtip Balmoral Oxford,” the model # is 974, and it is on Alden's Tremont last. These were made with Horween's burgundy shell cordovan. I am the original owner, and I have kept these shoes in nice condition, always with cedar shoe trees in them when I wasn't wearing them. As you can see from the photos, the soles have a rubber ”sole saver” on them. I also have plastic heel and toe ”taps” to limit wear on the edges. These things -- the sole savers and taps -- prevent wear on the soles, and save you the expense of re-soling the shoes. These retail for $828 at leading shoe dealers, include theshoemart.com. The cedar shoe trees shown in the photo are included in the sale. Nothing else is included; I don't have the original box or shoe socks. Although I have done everything I can to take care of these shoes, they are not new, so as you can see from the photos, the markings on the inner sole are slightly faded, and I am sure that if you inspect closely you may find some scuffs or surface scratches where the shoes came in contact with something during their lifetime. If you are looking for shoes that are in new condition, this is not the pair for you. You should look for a deal on a brand new pair in that case. These will last a lifetime if properly cared for. I am selling them only because I mainly work from home these days and don't have occasion to wear dress shoes all that often. If the asking price seems high, relative to the retail cost of a new pair, well, that is because I am not a particularly motivated seller. I really like the shoes, and I am not in a hurry to part with them. TheShoeMart states on their website that the Tremont last fits true-to-size. My experience is different. In my experience, these shoes fit half a size smaller than my actual shoe size. In other words, I normally wear a size 10.5 shoe, but this pair of Aldens, marked a size 10, fits me very comfortably. However, your feet may be different, and the best way to ensure a proper fit is to visit an Alden store and try on a few pairs. In my experience, Alden makes shoes on a variety of lasts, and while some fit ”true to size,” others do not. Although I want every buyer to be happy with their purchase, I am not a retail store and it is a burden for me to accept returns based on sizing issues. If you are not familiar with the brand, please note that Alden's cordovan shoes are made on steel lasts. This makes them stiffer, but it also means that you will set off any metal detector when you walk through it. In other words, if you are wearing these shoes when you go to the airport, you will need to take them off and put them through the x-ray machine even if you have TSA Pre-Check.
