AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Alden Shell Cordovan US size 7.5 E (EU size 41) Plain Toe Blucher Black Shell Cordovan NEW

The cut of the Blucher originates from the harsh conditions of the early nineteenth century and was conceived to provide the foot with unyielding support while simultaneously offering ample space under continuous strain. In its expression as a Plain Toe Blucher, this historical practicality finds its purest form. The construction strictly requires a large, flawless piece of leather, as the entire front upper is completely devoid of dividing seams.

The material originates from the Horween Leather Company in Chicago and consists of pure Shell Cordovan. This equine leather undergoes a six-month tanning process during which, through the use of vegetable extracts, it develops its characteristic firmness and an incomparably supple depth.

Crafted on the legendary Barrie last, the shape is characterized by a generous, harmonious volume and a commanding presence. The Goodyear welted construction anchors the upper to the bottom by means of a robust, all-around welt. A double oak leather sole completes the foundation and provides a reassuringly solid stance. Every single stitch of this enduring structure carries a quiet promise of longevity that will outlast the years with consummate elegance.

Size: US size 7.5 / Width E (EU size 41 / UK size 7)

Total outer length: approx. 30.5 cm

Inner length: approx. 27.5 cm

Width: approx. 10.8 cm

Leather / Outer condition: The pair is unworn and presents itself in absolutely mint condition with at most very slight traces resulting purely from storage or fitting.

Heel / Sole: The leather outsole is unworn with at most minimal traces resulting purely from fitting. The underside of the heel exhibits a subtle, purely superficial roughening from previous ownership. This fine, exclusively visual nuance is completely harmless and has no impact whatsoever on the substance, longevity, or functionality of the heel construction.

Other: The Alden Plain Toe Blucher in black Shell Cordovan crowns this rich American tradition of craftsmanship with the aura of a consummate, timeless aesthetic.

Original box and shoe bags are not included.

Seller's Story

Welcome to my page for premium first- and second-hand men’s shoes. “Chance favors the prepared mind.” Louis Pasteur (1822–1895) The idea of offering exceptional and carefully selected men’s shoes arose from a deep personal passion and long-standing experience with this fundamental element of the classic wardrobe. For me, a masterfully crafted shoe is far more than a mere object of utility – it is the visible expression of individuality, character, and refined taste. The focus is on traditional craftsmanship, excellent materials, and the enduring quality of timeless classics. Let yourself be inspired by this fascination and discover true treasures of the first- and second-hand segment in my shoe showcase, which impress with uncompromising quality and character.
