  • The 990AC is the Brick + Mortar take on Aldenā€™s classic 990 Plain Toe Blucher. Weā€™ve kept most of the details the same as the 990, except we have added a split commando outsole and antiqued the midsole and welt, which ties in with the Color 8 Shell Cordovan beautifully. The vibrant and famous Color 8 Shell Cordovan produced by Horween Leather Co. varies in hues from eggplant to dark burgundy and is known for wardrobe versatility. This Blucher is adventure ready and set to develop unique patina with wear and care.Ā 

    Shell Cordovan is made from the connective tissue from a portion of a horseā€™s rump. Itā€™s rare, low yield and known for its dense, tight grain and durability. This leather is highly regarded for being able to maintain its luster and shape over time.Ā 

    Alden footwear is crafted using Goodyear Welt construction, which allows for a full restoration when necessary and a water resistant build. A tempered steel shank under the arch and a cork fill provides remarkable support and comfort throughout the day.

    Shoe Size Guide

    Size down Ā½ Size (US 9.5D = Alden 9D)

    The Barrie last runs a 1/2 size larger than your standard US shoe size. The hallmarks of the Barrie last is its voluminous shape (high toe box, wide heel cup) and its ability to fit many different foot shapes comfortably. For this reason, itā€™s Aldenā€™s most popular last. If you have slimmer feet or a low volume instep, sizing down a full size in the Barrie Last is common.
