UNIFORM LA CHILLICOTHE WORK JACKET Drop, going on right now.
Uniform LA's Chillicothe Work Jacket is an elevated take on the classic Detroit Work Jacket. Made of ultra-premium 14-ounce Japanese canvas, it has been meticulously washed and hand distressed to replicate vintage workwear that’s been worn for years, and available in three colors.
This just dropped today. If you missed out on the preorder, there are some sizes left, but they won't be around for long. Check out the remaining stock here
Good luck!.

And decide what colour suit to wear them with for a wedding this summer. I don't fit into my old suits and I'm down to my own black wedding suit as far as what fits me now 😅
Any suggestions on suit is well appreciated too
I don't know, but the seller appears to know nothing!
Those shoes were made in Canada, not the USA. They are obviously not V-cleats, and I would be VERY surprised if they're Shell!
They are shell. Likely made as a special make up for Spence's in Calgary in the early 60's. I have seen three pairs now. I have confirmed through Skip Horween, who kindly checked their shipping records at the request of Brett Viberg, that they never shipped their shell to Canada. Horween did ship small batches of shell to Dack's in 1935, 1952 twice, and 1953.I think they're shell. Found the buyer.

Below is a pair of shell McHales from the 50's, and an advert from 1963 for shell Florsheims from Spence's in Calgary. I have never seen any other Canadian shell adverts for Florsheim.
Just an interesting pair I saw this weekend. I didn't pick it up - have enough bluchers for a lifetime and the outsoles felt a bit soft even being double ones. Uppers though were nice, of a very soft pliable leather, thick too (like some expensive leather jackets almost). Never seen a sole stamp like that. Says, If I am getting it right "Florsheim of Dacks & Brown"... View attachment 1912299 View attachment 1912301 View attachment 1912303 View attachment 1912305 View attachment 1912307
That makes sense. I was quite confused how could Dacks & Brown manufacture shoes together...Duckie Brown
