The first pair are "Royal Imperial" the second pair are "Imperial" . The soles on the second are wider, bulkier and nicer (to me). I won the first pair (only $20), lost the second pair (went for $68). The shoes are very nice w/ little wear but I feel like the soles are a little too 'prissy' for my taste, although I'll probably get used to them. The soles are marked w/ the florsheim label so they are the originals I assume. Do you think the second pair had a new sole put on or just a different model/different year? BTW- the color on the pair I won is much nicer than in the pic, looks like the color of the second pair.
