Are these Aldens?

[JGloger]

Can anyone determine if these are Aldens, perchance? I think they may be mis-listed on ebay and I'm wondering whether I should just drop the small amount on them (under $40) and find out.

[/IMG] edit: they look a bit like these .

So what you're saying is I should just spend the $33 and buy it now

PSA:

There seems to be another pair in size 11

My size, but I can't imagine when I'd ever wear a black tassel loafer...

They were listed by the same seller who had the original ones I asked about. Apparently he ended up w/ a couple pairs of Aldens and didn't know what he had.

If anybody wants the size 11 pair you can have them for what I paid + shipping cost (around $40ish total).

They look like Alden, and they also look suspiciously like cordovan.

If you're correct I'm going to be quite happy next week when they arrive

Top pic looks like cordovan, the bottom 'edited' in pic does not. Did you ever receive the pair you bought?

The vast majority of BB US made shoes are from Alden. They have been for years.
