If your like me you’ve got your feet well covered in color 8 shell cordovan. Be it Longwings, Penny loafers, Tanker boots, or any other model color 8 is where it’s at.
Do your waist a favor and hold your trousers up with a classic color 8 shell strap and buckle they go together like mac and cheese.

I own a number of Shell belts. Most were produced by Alden, a few by other companies. The Alden belts are far nicer than the other brands. They are well worth the money.
I understand that many recent belts are lighter than the color 8 shoes. Will your belts match a darker color 8 longwing? If not, is it possible to darken the cordovan?
I’ve been trying to find find a belt that matches my Alden Kudu leather boots. Since Alden doesn’t make a kudo leather belt, do you think color 8 would be the closest match?

I wear the Horween x Leffot brown chromexcel belt with my Kudu 404.
