Alden Shoes – The Leather Soul 5th Anniversary Shoe
Dear Friends of Leather Soul,
When I realized my dream and opened Leather Soul back in November 2004, I never imagined that I would be where I am today and it is all because of you.
Five years later, I still wake up and have the same feeling of satisfaction and passion I had back then. I feel blessed to have such great customers, employees, and friends supporting my business.
To commemorate five years of serving you, I would like to introduce the Leather Soul 5th Anniversary Shoe.



The chukka boot continues to be our top seller year after year. Alden’s shell cordovan chukka boot, #1339, is a timeless design. Some of our customers wear them casually, others wear them with suits. For our 5th anniversary model, I wanted to offer the classic chukka design, in a very comfortable, neutral fitting last, with a dressier welt and single oiled leather sole.
If you do decide to purchase a pair, I hope as with all of our shoes, they become a special part of your lives for years to come.
Mahalo,
Tom Park
Owner, Leather Soul
(The LS5 is limited to 50 pairs in burgundy and 50 pairs in black.)
A special thanks goes out to Mr. Dean Shimamoto, who designed the LS5 original heel pod logo.
Available in sizes 6-12D.
(Leydon Last, $595.00, shoe trees included)
SOLD OUT!

Hi
I would like to know if you have the burgundy anniversary model in, what matches a 9.5F UK in eg. Crockett & Jones (950F in Church’s).
I’m sorry, but I’m not used to american sizes!
How much is the shipping to Denmark?
Kind regards
Peter Fuglsang

Peter,
Thank you for the comment. Sorry, we do not have sizing experience with C&Js or Church’s. I’m assuming an F is a wide fitting and unfortunately we only have US D widths available. Shipping to Denmark would be $55.
Aloha,
Tom

Hi Tom,
My cordovan saddle oxfords (barrie) are 10 1/2D and they’re perfect. What would I need in these?
Thanks!

hope you guys do a restock so I can get a pair properly fitted when the LA store opens… I really like the burgandy color. Any left in 8D by the way? That’s what I measure on a Brannock device and wear in most shoe sizes.
