    I'm about to throw some models on eBay for the first time in a couple of years - a mix of unworn and worn. I searched around to look at how things were priced - is it me, or is there a lot of various rare cordovan models available? Seems like more available than a few years ago (back then, it...

    Oddly I don't believe I own a single boot with neocork soles anymore - I agree they are good. I had the Alden of Madison Copake Boots in my hand (black cordovan, neocork sole), but I didn't think I would get use out of them so I returned them. At some point I may go ahead and get one of the...

    It comes up higher on the foot (and this fits securely), but at the same time feels a bit roomier than the Van - maybe due to the “shallower” toe box. I was wondering if should order 10EE or 9.5EE in this one, very glad I went 9.5EE

    My most recent buy, and maybe my favorite this year? Leffot 15th anniversary color 8 loafers - on crepe! I wasn’t sure how they would turn out, but the loafer has a bit of a higher vamp than the classic LHS, making it fit much better IMO. The crepe makes pounding the pavement in Midtown...

    It's color 2 - I was expecting something more reddish, like mdub's versions he has on the Alden of San Diego site. I like them - but they are somewhat similar to boots I already own.

    I'll be active on the buy and sell thread the next few weeks / months, starting with some BNIB longwings (cigar and color 8). I want to keep one, so I am guessing the first one that buys one of them will result in the other coming off of the site...

    Whiskey Cordovan Naval Boots from Leffot. No storm welt, matched eyelets make this one look cleaner than most Light cordovan boots - B+M Whiskey Tankers from a few years ago, Amaretto Jumpers from last year, the aforementioned whiskey. My plan was to sell the amarettos but not sure now. All...
