Alden Shoes – Unlined Flex PTB in Shell Cordovan
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!
Available in sizes 6-10.5D.

Just saw your pics at AAAC. These look way, way better than what I thought when I saw your email. Great job, Tom!

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).

David,
No, please go for the same size as any other Barrie lasted shoe.

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?
Tom Said,

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

Tom,
Keep me in mind for an 11.5e when you do reorder!

Bob,
Yes, about 1/2 size larger than standard US dress shoe sizing.

It will probably be on the next preorder actually.

Wow! What a great idea! If they were the “wholecut” derby, I’d be sorely tempted.

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.
Tom Said,

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
