Alden for Epaulet | West Egg Sand Suede Longwing

Great Gatsby...



Upper - Butter-soft full-grain suede with glove leather liner
Outsole - Oiled leather "flex" sole
Last - 
Leydon last for a slimmer, modern shape

After much success with this longwing last season, Epaulet brings you a second beautiful color to choose from. Introducing Epaulet's newest Alden special make-up. Exclusive to Epaulet, this handsome "sand" suede longwing is named after the fictional "Gold Coast" town of Long Island where Jay Gatsby (a.k.a. the Great Gatsby) resided. Paired with a crisp white oxford and tropical wool trousers, these would certainly have been appropriate for a Springtime event at his mansion. 18 units are available.

The "flex-welt" leather sole is bathed in oil to make it exceptionally supple - but just as durable as any other solid leather sole. Forget a break-in period - these are as comfy as your favorite sneakers from the first moment you put them on. The style is a great split of dress and casual, and the medium-brown "Snuff" color is really handsome. Wear them with a navy suit, with raw jeans, with seersucker pants, with grey flannel trousers, or plenty of other pieces. These are guaranteed to get heavy rotation in your wardrobe.
