For Sale: Vintage Alden 975 Longwing Bluchers (“Gunboats”) in Stunning Burgundy Patina Color 8 Shell Cordovan – Built to Last a Lifetime These are the legendary Alden 975 Longwing Bluchers – affectionately known as “Gunboats” for their commanding presence and timeless American craftsmanship. Handmade on the Barrie last with premium Horween Color 8 Shell Cordovan uppers, these shoes are icons of durability, comfort, and effortless style.0 When I first purchased them six years ago, they arrived a deep, uniform black. Over time, with regular wear and care, they’ve developed a gorgeous, rich burgundy patina that only shell cordovan can achieve – warm, translucent, and full of character. The leather has that signature shell glow, with natural variations and depth that make each pair unique. They look even better now than the day I got them. Condition highlights: • Excellent overall, with beautiful aging and patina that tells a story. • Slight wear starting as a small hole in one sole – but these are true triple leather soles (the hallmark of Alden quality), so they remain fully wearable and supportive right now. No immediate issues for continued use. • Goodyear welted construction means they can be restored indefinitely. Brand new today, these retail for $1,009 (and often more depending on the retailer).027 The Shoe Mart link for new reference:
