With outside work finished, now all about couple ole favorites. Two tone Giorgio Brutini and Sperry Gold Cups. Comfy and stylish.

Always the contrarian, my shoes aren't shiny patent leather or buckskin suede supple. But they are considered by many to be "the most comfortable shoes in the world," with a price tag to match.

Sorry..... Anti fashionable alert this time!....... This boots dont even have a brand..... i found them in a flea market made by a guy who sold very cheap but good looking shoes and boots ( i never found him again after that day) ...... I thought they would fall apart very quickly so i didnt have many expectations on them..... well.... its been 3 years and they dont even need a resole yet....... they may not be the most gorgeous or have a big badass brand, but they have proven to be very durable and i learned to appreciate them. ( i love how they look being old and all).

New Vintage Shoe day at my house!

I would like to introduce my new (to me) 1930 Spectators. Roberts Johnson and Rand made these in the 1930's. Grey and green with gorgeous details. The green hue is truly "spectacular, " even for spectators.

The shoes arrived this morning and I removed some old built up wax. Then the leather has been soaking in conditioner. The soles cleaned and conditioned. I have ordered and am waiting for some Saphir shoe polish and creams I believe will match these shoes.

My cobbler was contacted early this week and we have an appointment for next week. I will have him review the shoes. I expect, like other vintage shoes, these will have to have the heels replaced, insoles made and a new insert for the heel created. The insoles and heel will make the shoes be able to be gently worn. As with other shoes I will have all the original parts saved. This afternoon I dropped the orginal box off to an archivist to have her work with the box preservation.

The soles will be covered with a rubbers sole. My cobbler has done this with other shoes and has been very careful so as not to hurt the ability to have them come back to original condition.

This pair of shoes I intend to gently wear.

Thanks for taking a look and stay tuned for future shots of them being worn.

Best, Eric -

Spectacular spectators indeed, Eric. Love the green cap and heel. You never cease to amaze me with all of your cool stuff!
