1930's Men's Paddock Boots

To me, no era reads with as much timelessness as the 1930's. The styles and shapes are simple, understated, and yet contain the most thoughtful details. These paddock boots are a mens shoe in a small, narrow size that happens to fit a lady perfectly. They appeared to have never been worn, and after a trip to the cobbler and a new sole, they might as well be brand new. The kind of shoe that strangers stop and ask you about -- all vintage wearers should be armed with a good story behind 'em.
