@fussballclub @absurdbird I've still got the Redwings from Shelly's circa 1993. American made and at the time, around £115 I think. There was a shop on South Molton/around there that sold them too. About three basic versions of a moc toe. Just like Carrhart at Interstate before they realised there was a massive market for fashion versions, those redwings were my pride and joy and fiercely expensive, mine with the dark Vibram sole. Oxblood/red or Black only. Cheap though compared to the sudden £200 plus price hike when I next looked. I've also got a good pair of Sam Walker George type boots, a Spiewak N1 deck from about 1998 that cost around 80 quid from John Simon in CG and that hatch/place off Brick Lane also sold great value Loakes sort of Cheshire street end if I remember
