Gentlemen,
It has been quite some time since my last visit; life and circumstance often gets in the way...
After taking an extended break from shoes, I have recently acquired two pairs I hereby present for study.
Both models have been seen in this very thread.
Way back in 2018, Jim made this post on a unique style of Hartts - notable for the unusual broguing. I saw this pair on Poshmark a couple/few weeks ago, and the price was very reasonable, so they now live with me.
They are fully leather-lined and high quality, and I am happy to have them in my collection! This pair shows the original brownish-burgundy shade.
Has a date range for this sockliner been established (like the Dack's study)?
Speaking of Dack's, the second pair newly-arrived was also posted by Jim a few months after the first pair in this post.
These are simply wonderful, and also came from Poshmark. They are the 3-digit 766 model, and now represent the oldest pair in my collection.
Note the thin-script "Dack's" in the diamond tag, and the difference in the size and model printing from the pair posted by Jim.
I believe this is an earlier "transition" pair perhaps from as early as 1949.
Observations?
