i tried to post this before, but apparently it got eaten.... i was at King Of Prussia this weekend and went "wingtip hunting". as predicted it was an easy hunt.
what i found interesting was the variety of styles of shoes that had wingtip designs. Here you see them in a loafer/docker variant, a suede sneaker looking variant, and one that brings in the "workboot" trend. (in addition to the more usual styles).
In addition all of these had some degree of "up toe" and many had the pointed square toe.
this was most notable in the Italian shoes.
I've never seen the workboot wingtip, its different.What store was this in?

all of these were in one store! (i have more pictures) they were all in the Neiman Marcus store in King Of Prussia Mall. right on the men's shoe displays!
ReplyDeleteThis shoes are the most classic men's shoe ever. They have come back every year in some new form or style. All the actors from the 20 and 30's wore these shoes as a uniform. It is very remenscient of that area. Love this shoe.
