I totally disagree! I have five pairs of 1940s shoes and they are all adorable. There are ones in crap condition on the market, but then again they’re 70 years old… so just ignore them and buy the nice ones!

Real vintage shoes are particularly good for those of us with slim ankles, their neat cut prevents that Fido Dido/golf club look that modern, all-too-clumpy shoes give.
