They are Allen Edmonds Ridgefield model - unfortunately they were last made in the mid-1990s.

My goodness those are beautiful. I like how it came shortly after the person who said that they could not justify spending an exhorbitant amount of money on a one season shoe

Wunderbar!

A very nice pair of black and white vintage spectators that I bought recently. They appear to be NOS which is nice and highly unusual. They are from the venerable firm of French Shriner and Urner. The "Urner" was dropped in the 1950s so with the bit of a spade sole and all I suspect these may be late 40s more probably early 50s. Size 8.5D (USA).
