Deadstock canvas shoes
I have a big lot of deadstock canvas shoes. Keds and Red Ball Jets, mostly. They’re all very small sizes, women’s 4 through 5-1/2.
Want a pair? Make me an offer.
Never even tried on or laced up!
Behind the Scenes
Borsalino XXXXX Leo
I got this at an antique shop in Salisbury Maryland. It, and a nearly identical one were in a closed hat box under some other things. Looked like someone else had wanted them and hidden them to get them later.
Royal DeLuxe Stetson
I got this as deadstock along with a 7-1/2 Whippet. Unfortunately, I sold the Whippet before people the name commanded such high prices. Still did very well on it, but got 7-1/2 Stetson prices, not Whippet prices. I think this really was the more interesting of the two hats, with the unusual thin binding, done in homburg style, and the thin felt band.

Cool confetti flecked wool with a flesh toned base on these. Contrast belt loops. Deadstock with tags.
1930s Thistle workwear eight panel cap
This cap is deadstock and still has the original tissue paper inside. It has a white leather sweatband and a removable lining, making it more comfortable for year-round wear. These old caps don’t survive nearly as well as felt hats of the era. These were more popular as sporting hats, or with the working class. They were inexpensive, they were treated rough and they were thrown out. Most deadstock you see is in smaller sizes- the ones that were harder to sell.
Foot So-Port Shoes.
Deadstock Foot so-port shoes, with some of the nicest soles I’ve run across. You’d hate to wear them.

Brown leather and mesh moc toe specators. NOS from back when Bostonian made a great shoe.
These were unfortunately stolen by a french ebayer who falsified a paypal claim after they’d arrived.
