Alden 986 Color 8 Shell Cordovan LHS / Penny Loafer

Alden 986 Leisure Handsewn - Color 8 Shell Cordovan Loafer 10.5 C/E ($1,022) EUC From Shoe Mart: “The classic leisure moc, Alden 986, is carefully handsewn, enhancing the character of Alden classics, oxfords, and slip-ons. Like many of our Alden shoes, including our Alden oxfords and Alden shell cordovans, this loafer is made with high-quality materials and has an outstanding reputation. History of the Alden 986 Alden 986 Color 8 loafers use the centuries-old method of hand finishing and pure vegetable tanning, making them quite the pick for footwear. The single tannery still making genuine shell cordovan today is indeed practicing a rare art, as it takes six months to complete and creates leather that is soft, supple, yet very durable. Another hallmark of this shoe is the Goodyear welt, which stitches the insole to the shoe's upper part for added durability and quality. Alden 986 leisure handsewn loafers carry a tempered steel shank, which is triple ribbed and precisely contoured for extra strength, and full leather lining from a special stock of supple glove and smooth glazed linings. The shank is truly the backbone of a fine welt shoe or boot. It delivers the support and shape you need for comfort throughout the day. Oak-tanned leather bends are cut into outsoles at the factory for maximum quality control. Shoe Mart is proud to offer the Alden 986 Shell Cordovan model, crafted with good looks and the integrity of fine shoemaking.” *************** Classic LHS shell cordovan penny loafers in very good pre-owned condition. Some light rolling to the vamps typical off shell cordovan. Soles firm with some mild heel drag. Previous owner has affixed removable tongue pads. Please examine photos carefully before purchasing. Thanks for looking!
