Alden 987 Black Shell Cordovan LHS / Penny Loafer

Van Last Alden LHS. Black Shell Cordovan Leather. Leisure Handsewn Loafer. Goodyear Welted. Leather Sole. The classic leisure moc. Careful hand sewing on the last enhances the character of Alden classics, both oxfords and slip-on. Using the centuries-old method of pure vegetable tanning and hand finishing, the single tannery still producing genuine shell cordovan today is indeed practicing a rare art. The tanning process takes a full six months to complete and produces leather that is soft and supple, yet very durable. Every Alden New England shoe carries a tempered steel shank, precisely contoured and triple ribbed for extra strength. Every Alden New England shoe has full leather lining chosen from a special stock of supple glove linings and smooth glazed linings. Truly the backbone of a fine welt shoe or boot, the shank provides the proper support and shape required to give comfort throughout the day. Oak tanned leather bends are cut into outsoles at factory for maximum control of quality. These shoes were purchased and worn only once outside. Size is a little too tight so I'm selling. Does not come with box or shoe-trees.
