    Phoque Shoes

    Well, I finally got around to taking some pictures of these ancient vintage beasties. They have a nicely shaped closed channel sole, a closely cropped welt with fine wheeling along with a tight heel. These probably date back to the 1930's or so. The maker is Jarman "Friendly Shoe Co", a shoe...

    Florsheim Longwings by Ducky Brown: A Review

    Ducky Brown went decidedly vintage with his latest Spring '10 take on The Florsheim Shoe. Updated for this season with exposed metal eyelets, a soft square toe, and fresh color combinations while still paying homage to the original via the revival of the V-Cleat heel. What's not to like?
