Another Man's Cordovan

Hot on the heels (heh, heh) of the gourmet boot acquisition comes a little more shoe porn, this time in the form of tassel loafers, "Breather Wright's" by long gone E.T.Wright:

A perfect ruddy red/brown color, plays well with pale yellow socks and wide wale cords in "cinnamon". Softness, patina, lack of hard creases and obvious level of care by the previous owner lead me to believe these are shell cordovan. Beautiful.

I know, I've posited before that wear and tear, or in this case glorious patina, only counts if it's ones own, and I stick by it. But who can say no to shell cordovan at $8.99?

p.s....in the Shop:
We may all be looking forward to Spring, but it still gets chilly at night. I've got the tweed jackets and sweaters to keep you warm and stylish...for cheap. Check it out.
