One pair ribbed dress socks, CTPS...$40. 9376C: Burgundy cordovan CTPS Genuine shell cordovan is rare… Most leathers come from cows, but cordovan comes from horses (which are not raised for this purpose). The shell, and let me put this as delicately as possible, is the subcutaneous layer that covers the equine posterior. Each horse provides two shells, which is just enough for a pair of shoes. A single shell never is long enough to form a seamless belt, so genuine shell cordovan belts are always pieced. The most nonporous leather known, shell cordovan is distinguished by its lustrous waxy finish, superior durability, and suppleness that readily conforms to the shape of the wearer’s foot. —G.
