The other day I was watching China Town by Polanski starring Jack Nicholson and there is a scene where Jack (lost) one of the shoes he was wearing. It was a Florsheim, which was a Chicago (USA) based shoemaker. I remember as a kid seeing a full brogue spectator in leather and linen mesh by Florsheim, I was taken back, I thought it was so beautiful. Just to revive some of the beauties they created I found some old ads from an American shoe making era lone gone.
