I have had these Allen-Edmonds Westgates in my closet for a while now, but I've become convinced they just don't fit me well enough to justify keeping them. I bought them almost-new on Ebay about a year ago and have only worn them 12-15 times since then because of the fit.
They were originally Brandy in color, though I have done some slight antiquing on the toes and heels to try and darken the color a bit. The edge dressing on the soles was darkened to brown by the previous owner. If you don't like the antiquing you can easily strip them back to plain brandy with some acetone, but I love the way they look now and I think the color is much more interesting than it was when I got them.
Size is 11.5C, on the 8 last. Condition is excellent--very minor creasing on the uppers, no breakdown at the heel, soles in great condition. The laces still even have the stiff, waxy feel that new AE laces have. I have put moleskin pads in the heels to try and improve the fit, but they can easily be removed.
I'm asking $75 shipped in the CONUS, Paypal. PM me if interested or with questions.
