    The 990AC simply puts the Brick + Mortar spin on Alden’s classic 990 Plain Toe Blucher. We’ve kept most of the details the same as the 990, except we switched the leather outsole a commando lug sole and antiqued the midsole and welt, which ties into the burgundy 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.

    Shell Cordovan is made from the connective tissue from a portion of a horse’s rump. It’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. 

    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 ½ 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, it’s Alden’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.
