AE Strands in black 13D, in great shape, still have original heels, small scuff/scrape on toe, but very fixable:


Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show) Second pair, 13M, burgundy penny loafer, new heels, well made, don't know maker, footbed says "Genuine Handsewn, Made in U.S.A", any ideas on maker?


Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show) Lastly, a pair of Hickey Freeman customized clothes grey dress slacks 34x31½ cuffed 1½", fell like new without tag, still had some sort of item number inside:

Love any advice/suggestions
