Alden SHIPS Special Edition 41887H Cap Toe Boots, Size 7.5 Material: Kid Calf Size: 7 1/2 Last: Modified Last Purchased about 20 years ago and worn for about 2 years at the time. I wore them while having them repaired, but I haven't had a chance to wear them recently, so they've been stored at home. They show signs of wear, but I think the look would change if you had the soles replaced and the edges refinished. The leather is very soft, and I found them comfortable to wear without getting blisters.
