Quite possibly the most comfortable shell cordovan shoe we’ve ever offered, our newest Leather Soul Exclusive Alden shoe is the Unlined Flex Plain Toe Blucher.
The unlined shell cordovan envelopes your foot like a well worn glove and the flex welt construction and single oiled leather sole make this shoe extremely comfortable right out of the box. This is the lightest shell cordovan shoe you will ever encounter. It will definitely put a spring in your step!
This is a definite must own shoe for the Alden aficianado!
SOLD OUT!

Just saw your pics at AAAC. These look way, way better than what I thought when I saw your email. Great job, Tom!
Also:
Merry Christmas LeatherSoul!
Destined to become a new classic. Unlined shell with the Horween stamp visible is the pure cordovan experience. I plan to add these to my unlined LHS and will hope to see more unlined models some day (hint, hint, Tom).
Thanks Sri, Thanks Marc!
Awwwww, narrow footed Pappa is sad!!

Happy New Year all!!!
Pappa,

Hello Tom,
I am from Austria – I would love to buy those shoes. How much are the shipment costs?
Mayr,
International shipping is $55.
Aloha,
Tom
Perhaps I am missing something, but what is the color?
Eric,
The color is #8 burgundy.
Aloha,
Tom
is the sizing affected at all by the absence of the lining?
David,
No, please go for the same size as any other Barrie lasted shoe.
Aloha,
Tom
Hello Tom.
Awaiting the opening of your SoCal Store. Is the Unlined Flex PTB available in a 9E? I wear a 9e in the AE Leeds (PTB). Also have a pair of BB in a cap toe 9.5 D. I have been considering purchasing a pair of Alden Chuka Boots until seeing this shoe. What would you recommend?
Bob,
Sorry, we only have D widths in stock. If you would like to special order an E, we should be placing another order very soon so you could add your size to that order.
Hope to see you in Beverly Hills!
Aloha,
Tom
Does the Barrie last run large?
Bob,
Yes, about 1/2 size larger than standard US dress shoe sizing.
Aloha,
Tom
Tom,
Keep me in mind for an 11.5e when you do reorder!
James
James,
It will probably be on the next preorder actually.
Aloha!
Tom
Wow! What a great idea! If they were the “wholecut” derby, I’d be sorely tempted.
Tom
Any 10.5 D left?
Thanks
Ed
Ed,
Sorry, we are sold out of 10.5D.
Aloha,
Tom
Any chance of these being offered in Black Shell Cordovan? I’m in the Navy and it would probably be the last uniform shoe I would ever have to buy.
Chris,
To be honest, I really don’t think these would make good uniform dress shoes for you. The unlined nature makes them wrinkle much more and look more casual. I would stick to something like our other various plain toe models such as our recent Hampton plain toe.
Aloha,
Tom
Tom-
Will you be doing this shoe again this year?
Maybe in Ravello?
Thanks
Ed
Ed,
We do have them on order, only in #8, due late Summer. My most comfortable pair of Aldens by far.
Aloha,
Tom
Tom,
Please reserve a pair for me in late summer. Size 10.5D.
Thanks so much.
When I make it to Hawaii, I will stop by for a pair of Lobb and Scotch.
Will do Ed!
Tom,
is it possible for me to reserve a 11.5D on the next batch of these (#8 color)
thanks,
Scott
Hi Scott,
I’m sorry to say we only ordered 2 pairs of 11.5D and both are already spoken for. I’m sure we will reorder again soon so please keep tuned to the website for more details.
Aloha,
Tom
Tom,
How about unlined whiskey shell?
Bryan
Bryan,
I wish!
Aloha,
Tom
Tom,
Is it too late to get in on the preorder for these in #8?
James
James,
Sorry, the order was placed a few months ago. I’m sure we’ll order them again though!
Aloha,
Tom
I’d like to order 8.5 C/E when available again. Thanks, Greg
Greg,
Please feel free to check back to the website for our preorder announcements.
Aloha,
Tom
any chance on this being offered for a preorder soon? i need 11.5e.
Lance,
We will probably include these on a preorder sometime soon.
Aloha,
Tom
These shoes look great! Would love to see someone’s pics of a broken-in pair, and would love to have a chance at another pre-order of these. Excellent blog Tom, thanks.
Thanks Peter!
