1940's J&M Handmades. Closed channel sole is angle cut (ala Vass)... a neat little detail.

While I can't afford Allen Edmonds, I still find I'm able to find some nice shoes at places like Ross. I don't care much for the store, but occasionally it proves itself not completely useless, like when I found these Bostonian saddle shoes. Not vintage, but not bad for $35.

Here is a wonderful type of casual shoe that is relatively hard to find. Mexican-weaved shoes were available in the 30’s, 40’s and 50’s. They may have been available before and after those decades but I do not know as that goes beyond my area of interest. Anyone? I am guessing these ones date to the late 40’s or early 50’s. I have included advertisements from 1940, 1942 and 1953, just to give you an idea of variations throughout the years. Anyone have a pair to share?

I loved these so much I had to find a pair of my own. Definitely not as cool as yours, but they are the best I could find in a size 12.

Note the closed channel sole, nice, slim waist & the heel notch... constructed separate from the rest of the sole.
