    One of the most unusual and charming (and fanciful) Alligator shoes to be shown in these pages. Who would imagine to fit a High Profile Vibram Sole to so sleek and elegant a shoes as an Alligator Loafer? But here it is, the ultimate loafer….and at this late date, no doubt among the last of its kind. In short, I have only one other with this combination of a quietly refined upper (especially in alligator) with such a “rough and ready” sole, and, as you can see in the website, I have a veritable menagerie of alligators.
    Needless to say the Alligator skins are of the finest quality, taken from unblemished farm raised animals (animals in the wild typically have too much damage and scaring from their more difficult existence), perfectly matched between shoes, artfully chosen to adorn the “raised apron” front.  The edges of the apron are hand finished with double stitching. Compare this to good ready made Alligator shoes in the 2-3000 range and custom made shoes in the 4-6000 range. Certainly nothing like this is being done today.

    Size Details

    The size: (9.5D US) (8.5E UK), European 42.5D, for the mid-width foot.

    Condition

    Uppers: Excellent, almost no visible creasing. The skins and linings supple as new.
    Interior: Perfectly clean with hardly any detectable wear to inner-sole.
    Bottoms: Soles: showing zero wear....indeed, perhaps only worn to try on. Anyway, this type of Vibram is indestructible and can be expected to serve you for decades.

    In Kürze: eine Rarität, sowohl was die existierende Anzahl als auch die Individualität des Designs betrifft – von der hervorragenden Qualität des Alligator-Leders ganz zu schweigen. Diese Leder stammen von makellosen, auf Farmen gezüchteten Tieren (das Leder von Tieren auf freier Wildbahn zeigt auf Grund des Ueberlebenskampfes wesentlich mehr Spuren und Beschädigungen). Beide Schuhe haben eine identische regelmässige Musterung, kunstvoll ausgewählt.  Er ist einer der wenigen Ueberbleibsel in nahezu neuem Zustand; vergleichbar durchaus mit heutigen Konfektions-Schuhen zwischen 1200-2500 E und mit Massanfertigungen, die in die Tausende gehen können.

    Size Details
