    Comment by 'smfdoc' in item 'Alden #907 Straight Tip Bal Calfskin'

    An update on prices for the Allen Edmonds PA and the 907. As of 9/1/18, the price of the Park Ave. is now $395. They have changed the sole options to the V tread and Dainite. In my opinion this is not an improvement. The 907 is now $557. Allen Edmonds has also introduced the Hopkinson, which...

    Review by '' on item 'Alden Burgundy Shell Cordovan Longwing'

    The Alden long wing blucher is a classic design that remains unchanged since the 1940. Made on the Barrie last, it is a sturdy double oak soled shoe that typically comes in black (style 9751) and burgundy (#8) shell cordovan (style 975). The black version comes with a leather sole that has been...

    Review by '' on item 'Alden Black Shell Cordovan Plain Toe'

    This cordovan plain toe blucher (PTB) is a high quality classic design by Alden. It is available in both #8 (style 990 seen in this review) and black (style 9901.) The double oak sole is sturdy and will last for years. The Barrie last normally runs 1/2 size large, so if you are an 11 D you would...

    Review by '' on item 'Florsheim Vincent Wingtip Oxford'

    The Florsheim Vincent, like its cousin the Veblen, is one of many Florsheim long wings. It appears to be closing out as a style and this still allows some bargains at less than $100. It is a standard lower priced foreign made shoe that is comparable to many other Florsheim styles. As an...
