Cookie, those are fantastic. They look in unworn condition.
Just joined last week, and noticed this interesting thread. What is the difference between two-tone saddle shoes and spectators? And which current spectator brands offer the best value for money? I have a pair of new Florsheim spectators in brown and light tan, but the shape of the shoe is modern, though well made. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks for the guidance. I checked the link that Frankposted and saw the Stacy Adams shoes. They look very well but I am suspicious of the price. I did not know that you can buy any shoes for under USD 200. Also I am a little cagy about ordering shoes online. Have any forum members bought Adams shoes?
Hello. Stacy Adams look vintage, and honestly unless you found a real pair of vintage shoes made by them, you may not like what the shoes are and how they are made. They depend upon using a lot of vinyl that looks like patent leather, not much real leather and a lot of glue to hold everything together. My best advice is to look on ebay for NOS or close to NOS shoes that are in your size. That or you can research shoes that are more quality shoes made in either England or Italy that are what you may be looking for. The price may be a bit up there, but remember you almost always pay for what you get.
