Rockabilly Spectators

Cool styling on these slick-soled two tone black and white spectator shoes. Cool styling and plastic construction. No animals hurt making these, folks. Man made through and through.

These two tone black and white spectator wingtip shoes were made in the 1930s. Metal toe and heel taps to prevent against wear. Made by Edwardson Shoes for Men.

McHale shoes

Pre-Longwing Gunboats. Canadian made by John McHale in the 1940s or 1950s. Enormous, heavy soles. Flush captoe. I can’t imagine what you could do to these shoes that they couldn’t take.

Deadstock Foot so-port shoes, with some of the nicest soles I’ve run across. You’d hate to wear them.

1970s brown and white spectator shoes

These 1970s spectators, with their high, curved heel, don’t have quite the same elegance of their 1930s forerunners. But the leather sure has aged nicely.

Brown Mesh Bostonian spectators.

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.

1930s moc-toe spectators. Just about the most perfect shoe to wear with vintage plus-fours.

Dacks Shoes

Another venerable Canadian maker, now sadly defunct. The quality of their product, especially their earlier shoes, speaks for itself.

Hartt Shoes

Vintage Canadian shoes were built to last. Thick, high quality leather, thick, nailed leather soles. They may not always be the fanciest or the flashiest, but as many of these shoes show, they will outlive you. And maybe outlive a second owner.
