View Bostonian Mens 10.5 N Crown Windsor Hand Sewn Loafers Brown Leather Casual VTG with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. Shell Cordovan Classic Tassel Loafer by Bostonian Circa 1985. Out of the over 200 American Shoemakers clustered around New England at the start of the 20 Century, only a handful remain, among them Bostonian, Cole-Haan, J &M and in Europe, the better know Alden and Allen-Edmonds. The great Florsheim and Bostonian exist today as marketing firms, the bulk of their wares being produced off-shore. Lamentable. The Bostonian Tassel Loafer in this listing, dating from the mid-1980s appears to have been among the last of the production that sprang from the American workrooms of this once great shoemaker. This is a handsome classic model in the old Goodyear welted tradition of workmanship, comparable to Florsheim or Hanover of yesteryear or the contemporary Allen Edmonds, if not better made than the latter. Wonderful mottled patina as seen in photos; the incomparable beauty of old cordovan. All leather. Hand sewn in the USA. Timeless. Sz 10.5 N Condition: Pre-owned - Good.
