Can anyone remember what these shoes were called?

Hi,



or,

Definitely not the bottom one. Top one very similar again but not exact.

Sole was same colour as shoe (I think).

Conversation with OH.

I wore them for the soul discos we used to go to.

He's not old enough to have done the same. :rotfl:

Now I'm reminiscing, I need to find the right ones to show him.

I'm very sad.

I know the sort you mean. Kickers made some similar ones, but I don't know their names. They were worn by a lot of indie kids too, before it progressed to grunge and everyone wore army boots.

Wallaby's I think.

I can't see the bottom pics....but I think they were Nature Treks.

That sounds very familiar to me.

Maybe the ones I had, had different coloured soles/laces.




Edit: It's coming back to me....they definitely were Nature Treks.

Happy days.

Thank you all so much for helping. :beer:

I can rest at peace now.

Taken from a NS forum,
Bass Wejuns, my old deputy head master used to wear them, the sadistic old b**tard, all the kids used to call them cornish pasty shoes,

Also mention Frank Wright Loafers, And Polyveldts.

Oooh that made me think of my suede palladiums from Dolcis! I loved those shoes. They were so comfortable!
