Vintage Dress shoe appreciation, tips, maintenance and advice

I thought it will be fun to search for such meme. But what I've got hadn't been fun at all. Google showed me device in form of foot with builded ****** in it. One of those devices suited to store in empty cardboard shoe box according to @wasmisterfu
I will never never try to find dating with shoes memes again...

Spoilering a post is easy. To place content within a spoiler, look up to the tool bar for the icon with 3 dots and a down arrow. That is the insert tools.

Click the down arrow to reveal the selections and select Spoiler.

When you select spoiler, it will open a box for the title of your spoiler. Enter the name of your spoiler button. (You do not have to write "Spoiler" as that is automatically inserted.

Click "Cintinue and it will place the Spolier code onto your post as seen below. The cursor will be automatically placed just ahead of the end of the spoiler code, as seen below.

Since the cursor is in the correct location, hit return a few times to create some space. It will look like this.

Now, just insert an image or text in the space you have created. Then save your post. The spoiler will appear and work. I have spoilered an image here for demo purposes.

New find: New old stock, unworn Foot So Port. Size 12EEE and surprisingly comfortable. I wouldn't have thought to try 12EEE, but one day at JCPenney I saw some Florsheims in that size; I tried on a pair out of curiosity, and they fit better than I was expecting. "Comfort First"

Here are a pair of HEAVY captoe bals made for Boyd's of St. Louis. Do any of you have any idea who manufactured them

As I mentioned earlier, they come complete with cobwebs.

Check out those soles! They're a full 5/8" thick!

Any St. Louis guys here? Who can tell me about Boyd's? The heel pad says "Threadneedle Street," by the way.

Who goes to the trouble to BBQ 10 wings?

A guy who promised his wife he would stop at 10.

Tell her you won’t eat any more wings than you have pairs of shoes. That’s reasonable.

He’d need a lot of sauce for a pile of wings that big:

Today’s WTF listing on eBay, is an empty box, for 28 bucks shipped.

That’s right, you can buy an empty Allen Edmonds box, all your own, right now, for 19.99 (plus 8 bucks shipping).

Keep in mind, it’s not New In Box (?!) condition, as the box has some scrapes. But it’s a nice, blue, Allen Edmonds box, perfect for storing smaller empty boxes.

Yeah, okay, it comes with an empty dust bag also. Ya know what it doesn’t come with? Shoes.

Had to run into the office today, so I went overboard.

1996 AE Sanford in Walnut Aniline Calf and White Glove.

Brooks Brothers seersucker suit.

White Panama hat.

My meeting was rescheduled for later this week, so now I’m alone in my office all dressed up with nowhere to go.
