We have received a limited edition Chromexcel Short-Wing Blucher from Alden. The Lowell Short Wing Blucher has Brown Chromexcel uppers and is made on the Barrie last with a 360 reverse antique welt and weatherproof crepe sole. The crepe sole is great insulation from the cold. Chromexcel leather lends this a very casual feel after wear. The Barrie last fits 1/2 size larger than labeled. Need to size down 1/2 size from your usual size.
