Shoes for Fastidious Walkers (Jan, 1933)
Shoes for Fastidious Walkers
IF YOU are a fastidious walker you will probably appreciate the unique shoe soles shown in the photo below. The design is made by the use of inlaid bits of colored leather and with studs, so that the patterns run all the way through the leather, if that means anything to you. The shoes were displayed recently at the Shoe and Leather Fair in the Royal Agricultural exhibition in Islington, England. They were held to be a masterpiece of the shoemaker’s art.





Shes a rich girl;
She don’t try to hide it;
Diamonds on the soles of her shoes . . . .

Well, at least they got it right: it did not mean anything for me.
