These Alden shoes have the Barrie last.  So, for me at least they run large. I wear a size 10 in all of Aldens other last types. "The Shoe Mart" suggest ordering a 1/2 side small than you normally wear. I really like this Barrie last as it fits my feet really well and gives my feet a lot of support. The shoes are lightly used in good condition. Looks like that I must have stepped in some paint, as you can see from the soles. I took a close up picture of one of the sides of the shoes that has a small bit of paint on it. I did not notice this until I took these pictures, as it can not be seen from the top or a distance. You have to look closely to see it.  Retail price on these shoes is $744 at "The Shoe Mart".  From Alden: Long Wing Blucher Burnished Tan Calfskin leather uppers Full glove leather lined with pure vegetable tanned leather insoles Waterloc Oiled Leather Sole 360 Degree Goodyear Welt Barrie last A much sought after Alden Long Wing Blucher oxford in Burnished Tan Calfskin.
