I was wondering if someone could tell me a bit about these Alan McAfee shoes I picked up yesterday at Goodwill ($15). I searched around the forum and came to the link below. According to it, the label on the insole of my shoes was used at least as far back as the 60's. Is this correct? Can anyone confirm the vintage of my shoes? Also, forgive my newbie ignorance, but are they supposed to look as they do, with the sort of patina they have? Anyway, thanks for your assistance. They don't appear to be bespoke, at least from what I can tell. They simple say "Made in England" on the sole, so I figure them to be RTW. Regardless, I figured for $15 I couldn't go wrong for a lightly worn pair of English shoes.
