This book has been in my father’s library as far as I can remember.
I never knew what it was about but I remember it because
it had a leather label on the front.
Well that book is written by a shoe company called Ritsi Shoes
(not quite sure if they still exist)
to celebrate their 20 years in business(in 1989)
and it is called ”The shoe and its history” .
I have never read anything on shoes described
in such a detail and with so many illustrations.
The shoe on the left is by a company called Sebago and I do remember
only the cool kids in High school having a pair of those .Actually now
they are back in fashion but of course a lot of companies make similar models nowadays.
There were also the tracters by Timberland
but i do prefer the Sebago ones and there was another company
called sea and city if i remember well
