Those are special. I think the date code says 8S, which I think translates to 1958.11B brothers: jump on these. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Florsheim-...p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0
The 8S in these is part of the model number (a special order), not the date code.Those are special. I think the date code says 8S, which I think translates to 1958.

These are 70's vintage, but not dress shoes. Still, for $19 I got a bit of my youth back so forgive the OT post. Back in the 70's I was an avid hiker and backpacker and bought a pair of these at Eastern Mountain Sports in Boston, not far from where I grew up. Even paid retail, perish the thought. Fast forward a bunch of years and a woman who shall remain nameless tossed them without asking me first. An unforgivable sin.
Having had similar boots at a similar time, the project seems worthwhile. Hemingway's first wife lost the manuscript of his first novel on a train. He didn't stay with her, either.
A pair of 45 year old boots can not show their age at all.

These are just leather everywhere, inside and out.

But for brunch today with my youngest son and his girlfriend, the C&J Harvard loafers get the call.

These have Dainite soles, so when we go for a walk afterwards along the San Francisco Marina, they won't even notice.

Should be a good day for it.
