Is there any difference other than the stitching pattern on the back of the heel, between the BB tassel moc and the standard Alden tassel moc? Are both on the aberdeen last? Any recommendations between the two? Wanting to pick up a pair of color 8 in either version. Thanks in advance...

My first thought was APC Harris tweed jacket too.
Looks good.

My jacket has the Harris Tweed 'Orb' sewn inside. But i agree i dont recall them saying it was Harris Tweed on the APC page.

Big fan of the 9751, the unsung hero among the shell gunboats... congrats!!


Agreed. I bought a pair of color 8 LWBs and wasn't so sure about them at first. After a handful of wearings, I really started to like them and I like them more each time I wear them. Making me think a black LWB would be a good purchase. And they look SO good with dark jeans.

Try the pedag holiday 3/4 insole - leaves room for the toes, slight arch support.


when folks use an insole, do you remove the alden heel pad?

(intrigued as I have a roomy shoe problem - see sig. tongue pad helps some)

My three shell additions Christmas gifts. The last one just arrived today...



An ebayer gave me a deal I couldn't refuse; RL's Marlow short wingtip, NIB. I know, I need to expand beyond the blucher. That will be my New Year's resolution!
