Day One Hundred-Seventy Eight

'First Saddle Oxfords'

100.00 + 4.00 s + h






Do any of you out there remember wearing these? They were very popular when I was in school. We had ones called 'Spaldings', and mine were brown and white... They were also a bit of a challenge to paint... especially the laces... serves me right, I used to make my students draw shoes with laces as a sketchbook assignment !
