• Alden of New England
  Shell Cordovan
  Hand Sewn Raised Apron Split-Toe Norwegian Monk Strap
  Euro 540

  In beautifully saturated black horsehide from the best tannery in the world, Horween, these shoes, with Goodyear welted leather sole and combination, dove-tailed McAffe style heels are a no-nonsense, no-compromise, indestructible shoe for the gentleman and ideal year round, equally suitable for day or evening wear, an absolute basic in the wardrobe.

  There is no doubt that Alden produces among the best-made contemporary American shoes and the best cordovan shoes in the world today. Cordovan shoes are a typically American tradition and while others (Crockett and Church’s in England; Vass, Dinkellacker, Reiter in Germany and Hungary), responding to the popularity of this material, have begun to produce cordovans, Allen Edmonds and Alden, two American shoemakers, remain the premiere producer and the most in demand of the modern Shoemakers.

  This model has not been available from Alden for over a decade and was never sold in Europe. It is available from Alden today as a special order, Euro 889 plus state or EU taxes.
