She comes walking down the street
That's the kind, hey,
That's the kind I want to meet
I think I'm making it up
I should be putting it down
and it's beginning to show
I get it fixed in my head
and it won't let go
Oh, I can't help myself
when I feel this way
I want to be someone else
When I get this feeling
it gets in my system
I can't put the brakes on
Now she's walking next to me
that's the place, yeah,
that's the place I want to be
I think I'm making it up
I should be putting it down
and it's beginning to show
I get it fixed in my head
and it won't let go

These shoes a presumably of late 40s-early 50s origin. I picked them up at a local vintage shop, Courage My Love for $40. They are in wonderful condition and I wear them constantly. They are honestly more comfortable than Sperry Top-siders

Glad you're so happy with your vintage shoes. Do you know the maker?These shoes a presumably of late 40s-early 50s origin. I picked them up at a local vintage shop, Courage My Love for $40.

Y'know I have no clue. The only thing that might be branding is the word "Holtite" written on the bottoms but I'm not sure if that's a brand or not.
Does anyone else?

The STYLE is first class, too. Those are gorgeous shoes.Bostonian Alligator

Look like 60s with the lazy lacing but the skins are awesome.
