      Color 8 is insane.  The depth and how it changes to the light… great stuff.

      It's my favorite shell color that I own (also have black AE dress shoes, and yes black shell is underrated as people basically hate it) But looking to add some variety to the mix with something lighter.  That said I wouldn't be suprised if I ended up still liking color 8 the best after its all said and done.

        Aldens weathered the salty walk today much better than my work trousers…

        wiped em' clean when I got into the office and they were ready to go.

                    Just took delivery of these Alden Shell #8 x Pebble Grain Saddles from Leffot. Here are two piccies:


                    They reminded me a bit of these vintage Alden's:

                                  Crazy how each batch of shells comes out a different shade.  Beautiful stuff.  I'm still waiting on some whiskeys so I have a light pair to mix in with the no 8s

                                      New laces on my Indy's. I'm digging the contrast of the blue.

                                          my thoughts as well…those socks are pretty perfect when rocking with boots

                                            Just wondering how do you guys keep shell cordovan crease free and looking so shiny. Does using shoe tree help in preventing the creases from setting in?

                                            I know creases will appear on all leather shoes with more usage but for dressier shoes, I prefer to keep them looking spanking new.
