Bergdorf shoe find

[Lomezz]

Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed the shoes in question are labeled 'goodyear', yet there is clearly a channel in the outsole.?.

Yes, but isn't there supposed to be one in goodyear welted shoes? I mean, the stitch that goes through the welt and the outer sole.

BTW, wouldn't it be great if every shoe maker would label their shoes in terms of construction method, leather type, sole leather type, etc.? I say it's no less important than labeling food products or drugs...

I guess I've just never seen it like that. I suppose you are right.

That would be much too easy. What would I obsess about then?

Oh, I'm not too worried - there's always waist bevels to measure, last numbers to memorize and shining technique to perfect.
