RARE 1930s men's suede shoes in tan -- real beauties

[Marc Chevalier]

A fantastic pair of vintage 1930s suede wingtip shoes in a very rare color: sand tan. Just the thing that Fred Astaire wore back then. Looks like they have their original narrow flat laces, too.

Lovely shoes but that color suede is hardly rare today.

... that color suede is hardly rare today.

I failed to make myself clear. What I meant was that it's all but impossible to find a pair of 1930s suede shoes in this color.

Oh, you were clear. I was commenting on the seller's spiel.

Reminds me of a pair of suede wingtips with crepe soles I had years ago. Most comfortable shoes I had for a stroll in the city. Thanks for posting Marc.
