Shoes

Shoes.

Shoe materials are mainly glacé, calf-skin, suede or patent, or combinations of these.

Popular styles are the court and buckled court; the wide-bar buckled shoes, perhaps with cut-outs; two or four-eyelet tie shoes. All these usually have a medium Spanish heel. The monk shoes, with fringed or tucked flaps neatly buckled across, and the shoe seamed up the front have Cuban heels—or lower. The ghillie and the derby, shoes for walking comfort, have definitely low heels.

Individuality is given to shoes by clever combinations of materials, by cut-outs, by punching and by outlining seams in a different colour.

Shoe styles are so varied that shoe selection should present no problems.
