Hello,
Just bought these shoes and boots from a thriftstore in Coquitlam (Vancouver). The boots cost me $10 and the shoes cost $6.
The boots were made by a company I haven't heard about. the label in the boot: "Tiverton & Co" and "made in Italy". They have a leather sole and are in great condition. I love the shape of the boot and the aged (patina) finish of the uppers.
Questions: Any information / opinions about the boots and the maker? what is this style of boot called (looks like a jodhpur chukka cross).
The split-toes are made by Florshiem (according to the label). They have a rubber sole and the leather (upper) is soft and supple. I also love the longer vamp (if thats what it is called?). They seem to be a better quality then what I would expect from Florshiem. I have searched the internet and can't find any information about these shoes. I have seen similiar Florshiems but they are not as long-looking and don't have the small leather piece in the heel (covered by the rubber)
Questions: Any information / opinions about the shoes? style name? age?
Thanks ahead of time.
