Vincent All description

Offering up a pair of dead stock, completely unworn vintage rockabilly shoes, these are from the 1950's and not repro's! They are sized a 12D, but I'd say they fit more like a size 11 by today's standard, they are quite narrow fitting, so if you've got feet like table tennis bats these won't work for ya! These bad boys come in a nice chocolate brown color with leather soles and uppers. Rockabilly star Gene Vincent can be seen wearing these in tons of online photos, his band the Blue Caps are also wearing them in a lot of pics. The insoles have long gone (they always curl up like bacon and get lost) but grab a set from your local pharmacy, pop them in and you're ready to bop! Although there's no label I believe these were made by the "Calumet" company. It's unbelievable that the soles of these kicks haven't touched a floor in 60 years!!
Tough ones to find..especially in this unworn mint condition!

International bidders please wait for my invoice!

THANKS FOR LOOKING!
