Show us your SHOES !!!

Allen Edmonds Jackson

My wife just phoned me from Nordstrom and she informed me that they are having a clearance sale on the Allen Edmonds "Jackson" shoe. The sale price is $65.00 regularly $350.00. I just looked at their website and they're not listed there but if you live near a Nordstrom it may be worth a phone call! Good Luck!

The Materna shoos l posted are like something you'll see very very rarely. They are both hand welted and double hand wood-pegged and made with the best `box calf'. They also have wonderful arch support and other inner build-ups in the shoo. It fit wonderfully. lt's impossible to find a better made shoo in the world! Strong and tough. Built to last a lifetime of heavy punishment. The arch supports will keep the foot in good health.

Not rare or exotic, just a nice pair of Florsheims in great condition that I found at the thrift shop last week for $6.99.

Both Poetic Licence - my favorite make, they do shoes that make me smile - got the last ones in red too. Perhaps not worn at their best potential with those tights, particularly the red ones look a bit dodgy, but are cute shoes in real life.

 

[The Shooman]

Nice shoos Ms Daisy. A nice rounded toe, not a witches toe. l still find the nicest/sexiest ladies shoo to be open toed shoos. lf a girl has a nice foot, she must show it.

Shoes for dancing and romancing! How shall I keep off-white suede pretty?

These shoes are made for walking..or what are they made for?! What whould you wear these to and when would they be from? They have a thick white sole that doesn't show when I lightened it to show the black details.

 

[Michaelshane]

Those look like nurse shoes.Very cute.:eusa_clap

By never taking them out of the box.


Seriously, get yourself a Buck Bag.

These shoes are made for walking..or what are they made for?!

They look like dancing shoes, think Riverdance.

 

[Mary]

Nurse shoes and Riverdance!lol How bizarre!

The nurseshoes I've seen so far are ordinary pumps, but maybe nurse had these types of shoes too.

The buck bag. Great tip!

What is trachten? I've tried to google it but nothing shows up.

 

[Luke 42]

What is trachten? I've tried to google it but nothing shows up.

That's a kind of bavarian/austrian traditional (country) clothing. Think Dirndl for the ladies and Lederhosen for the men. But don't nail me to it, I'm no expert..I'm from the wrong part of Germany

Good Morning, looking for a vintage looking shoe... sort of a cap toe oxford, maybe a tan or brown color with aan offi white linen or mesh area between the cap toe and the vamp. Anyone know of something like that???

Thanks,

Did you remember to bring the pickanick basket?...

 

[crazydaisy]

Nope, haven't got one. Been looking around for one actually, but gave up as they cost surprising amount of monies and I'm broke anyway.
