Just can’t hurt Horween Shell….

I don’t think I would choose shell for a patina contest in the future, but man, nothing looks or wears better in the real world. Get ya some rare shell and tell the world you are here!

More about this item

I would contend that any kind of Alden Shell footwear is probably NOT the best choice for a patina contest. No matter how trashed they are, a quick brushing or, in extreme cases, a conditioning, makes them look new again.
