Canvassed vs. fused.
Welted vs. cemented.
Split waistband vs. "jean construction"
These are all distinctions that our fathers' fathers new quite well, but almost noone today has any knowledge of them. Now, everyone I know seems to think $50 will buy you an amazing pair of trousers and $120 will fetch you the finest shoes how can own. We seem to have lost knowledge and interest in a very short amount of time.
As a young person who can't remember it happening, I want to ask: When, and how, did it happen?
