Does any have any photos of their black shells? I'm thinking of getting a pair of black shell oxfords. I looked in the thread but couldn't find very many pics. I prefer the look of burgundy and brown, typically, but I'd be buying the black pair more for their durability than their patina. Still, if anyone has any photos, I'd love to see how they age.

im more of a sneaker person but looking to step up from a pair of AE strands.. looks like i will go w/ carmina over alden, thanks..

Yes Sir.

If you want the burgundy or Color 8 as Alden calls it, then I would go Alden indeed.

If you are looking for the Cognac or other lighter cordovan shades then go Carmina.

I am just trying to help.

You may want to shop around some and see which vendor makes a LWB of the sleekness that you like.
