BRAND Alden Shoe & Co. (USA) — United Arrows Japan Special Order Model No. 9900 — Ravello Shell Cordovan Plain Toe (990X Series) CONDITION Current Status: Good (B+ Grade) Dust bag included. No shoe trees. General signs of everyday wear present throughout. Crease formation and color are well-managed — left and right color balance is even and consistent throughout. This example's ravello tone sits closer to the red ravello end of the spectrum — a particularly uncommon and sought-after color position within ravello production. Professionally cared for and ready to wear as-is. Heel and vintage steel tip will require attention eventually — not yet at a critical stage; monitor and address at a future maintenance interval. United Arrows Japan special order — same 9900 model number but with a distinctive red-leaning ravello tone not available through standard Alden retail. Made in USA SIZE & MEASUREMENTS Tagged Size: US 8.5D — Barrie Last Last: Barrie Last — the widest-volumed standard Alden last; runs approximately half size larger than true size. Korean size recommendation: E-width foot at 260mm; D-width foot at 265mm. Width: D MATERIAL & COLORWAY Upper: Shell Cordovan 100% — Ravello (Horween) Outsole: Double Leather Welt: 360° Pre-Stitched Reverse Welt Color: Ravello — a rare shell (레어쉘) Horween cordovan colorway; a brown-toned base with warm red undertones that varies meaningfully between seasonal production runs. This United Arrows commission sits closer to red ravello in tone — notably more red-inflected than standard brown ravello, making it a particularly distinctive and collectible example. Ravello is one of the most globally sought-after Alden shell cordovan colorways — sells through immediately upon release worldwide. Each production run carries a slightly different color character, giving collectors reason to seek specific batches.

Brand Alden Shoe Co. Condition: New with Box (Factory Second) Full R-box + certification booklet + shoes included Vintage steel installed / shoe trees not included Unworn new old stock condition Factory second due to one minor cosmetic mark on right shoe Professionally assessed as stable (not spreading or tearing) Pre-cared by specialist prior to sale Excellent left-right color balance and strong welt quality Size (Measurements may vary by 1–2 cm depending on how they are taken.) US 8E Material Genuine Horween Shell Cordovan 100% Rare Shell “Cigar” Color Construction / Details Model 9900 Plain Toe Blucher Derby Barrie Last Double Leather Outsole 360 Pre-Stitched Reverse Welt Vintage steel toe protection installed Made in USA About the Item An exceptional example of the highly coveted Alden 9900 in Cigar Shell Cordovan, one of the rarest and most admired executions in the 990 family. Crafted in Horween’s famous Cigar shell cordovan, this is one of the true “Rare Shell” colors alongside Ravello and Whiskey—colors becoming increasingly difficult to source as shell supply remains unstable worldwide. Particularly notable is the US 8E width, a scarce and highly sought-after fitting, especially for collectors who prefer the Barrie last in a roomier E width. This pair is an R-stamped factory second, designated only because of a small cosmetic mark on the right shoe. Importantly, welt quality, shell quality, and color matching are reportedly excellent, and a specialist assessment indicates the mark is stable and purely cosmetic. The 9900 remains one of Alden’s benchmark shoes: elegant enough for tailoring, yet robust enough for classic casual and heritage wear. The Barrie last, reverse welt construction, and double leather outsole make it a lifetime shoe. For many enthusiasts, the 990 series represents the pinnacle of Alden’s ready-to-wear offerings—and in rare Cigar shell, even more so. Color Note Cigar is an Alden-exclusive rare shell shade with deep brown warmth and remarkable aging potential. Highly collectible and far less commonly encountered than standard Color 8. *** RETURN*** There are no returns due to change of mind. Please think carefully before purchasing.
