MEN'S CLASS














Today, men's shoes are a far cry from the way things were with George Kelly and the 1950s. Miss-match shoes were common place. Klevin Shoe  company  Maniquen was short lived. All of New England was about shoe companies. Brockton was still making shoes when I worked for Aetna in 1972. Then one at a time they went South and East.

Tennis shoes for runners bombarded the shoe market.Taymour at the Railroad Station was the last vestige of show deals.

I delight in the smell of shoes. So did my father. Vibram in North Brookfield carries on the traditions of "Soles & Heels" for military boots. In Australia vulcanized boot' prevail. And yes, Nancy, The boots were maid for walking!.

We will always have "boots on the ground"
