The aging process of leather shoes is something a shoe connoisseur relishes. The patina, or the color age gives to the leather, is something to really behold.
This particular pair of shoes is a pair owned by Tom from back in 2001. Notice the lightening of the leather and development of a unique patina.

The Shell Cordovan V-Tip, available in Burgundy #8 and Black, continues to be our #2 best seller. Over the years we have sold hundreds of pairs, second only to the #1339, Shell Cordovan Chukka Boot.
There’s nothing wrong with #2. For a classic American dress blucher, we feel as though there is nothing better. Built on the Leydon Last, with a Single Leather Sole, the V-Tip, with a cult-like following in Japan, is a classic Alden model that every Alden fan should own!
Available in Sizes 6-10.5D.

Riding the subways of Tokyo you’ll notice (as well as in any big city around the world) a lot of chunky, square toed, rubber soled shoes worn by businessmen on their way to work. It’s a tragic sight, but one all too familiar for those who appreciate finer footwear.
Those very unattractive shoes were the inspiration for our new Flex Monk Straps. Built on the Plaza Last, with an Oiled Leather Sole (great for rainy days), Alden’s Flex Welt Construction, in a buttery Soft Black Calf, these “Salary Man Shoes” are “everday comfortable” and will take the place of those chunky-monkey shoes in a perfect world.
