picked these up today for just a few dollars, hadn't heard of the maker before, bit of google searching has only really brought up some old ads. quality seems pretty good. anyone have any information the maker etc ? (apologies for the bad iphone pictures) **addendum - was an offshoot...

Got another pair of Florsheims with the old logo from the same thrift shop as the last pair. they are the 'Yale', they seem to be of a higher grade than the other pair, did florsheim ever have a line kind of like AE's independence line?, no idea of age and debating on keeping them or not, they...

will shortly be entering the brotherhood, just won a Borsalino Alessandria Fedora on Ebay. Just have to hope it makes it here from the US in one piece

Glenfarclas 25y Single Malt (given to me for my 25th)

cheers for that, Florsheim haven't got back to me anyway, I wasn't entirely sure on when Florsheim scrapped that logo, I sold a pair a while back from the early 90s which had completely different logos on the footbed and sole, the heel 'logo' is the same though. (very limited examples here in...

picked these up thrifting today, im guessing deadstock? are unworn and look like never been laced up, size 8 EEE which might be the reason why they are still kicking about. Going to confirm with Florsheim but going off the serial code im guessing 875 refers to August 1975. Shoes also still have...

' Going off like a 2 bob watch '

My 30 dollar op shop suit, think it might be 80s but with the AE park avenues and a trilby i think it pulls off a 60's look pretty damn alright, very heavy suit but it was a -4 degree morning here so worked out well.

construction wasnt as great as i was hoping, especially given they were my first new pair of AE's but comfy and certainly turn heads, especially here in Canberra, a very boring capital

heres the whole collection so far, working on getting shoe trees for all newly acquired Florsheims, AE park Avenues, AE Nuemok Webgems, AE Mcallisters ( made in early 70's)

Got given a pair of Florsheims from a work collegue, not new but i dont think quite vintage but still pretty awesome for a freebie, from the sole they look like they have only been worn a few times, the Florsheim logo on the heel is perfect and the sole as a stamp saying genuine leather made by...

just to add doesnt seem to a union tag or anything inside which i have been able to use to easily date so any help is appreciated
