Alden A0912H Shell Cordovan Indy Boot

Title: Alden Indy Boot in Whiskey Shell Cordovan Condition: Excellent Description : Title says it all, this is close to as rare as it gets. Both an Alden handsewn model in old-school and very rare Whiskey Shell Cordovan (not the current version of whiskey that is truly Horween bourbon). I had to reach to South Korea for these boots as getting them in the states was simply unattainable. These boots have Triumph Metal Toe taps that were professionally installed and lay perfectly flat. Additionally, I am including a pair of brand new matching laces (but will swap out for the Alden laces if desired). Lastly, I will include a pair of Alden-branded shoe trees if buy-it-now is used. Note that these boots will ship with unused Alden bags but not the original box. I have adjusted the listing price accordingly. Also, please understand your Alden sizing as returns are not accepted on these special boots. Size : 8.5D Last : Trubalance Fits like : US 9D - TTS Condition Scale: I mmaculate/Like New Condition - less than 5 wears, minimal creasing scuffing, no discernable wear to soles. Excellent Condition - more than 5 but less than 10 wears. Light creasing and sole wear. Very Good Condition - more than 10 wears. Moderate creasing and sole wear. Less Than Very Good - never gonna happen. I don't own any footwear in this condition. Miscellaneous: I list honestly and ship fast. Hundreds of shoes sold and 100% positive feedback, both here and on SF (shawnc). Discounts available for multiple purchases. Only reason for selling is I simply need to downsize. Excellent 'rares' available at good (not great) prices. This is your chance to 'cut the line' and not purchase thousands from retailers to get the opportunity for a rare shell purchase. But I do not accept returns unless listing is inaccurate. Pictures tell the story. Please understand Alden and EG sizing and how it relates to your feet.
