New Shoe Styles
Shoes with rubber soles and wooden heola, and sandals with cork and rubber soles, are among the most useful for sports wear ashore as well as afloat (states a correspondent). The cork and rubber soles guard against slipping at deck sports during cruising or ordinary sea1 voyaging. Some of the new sandals for sports wear shown at a recent shoe and leather fair in London had "tops" of gaycoloured "mesh" and tango straw.
Many of the cork and rubber sole models were made, in two colours, as well as in all one shade, and were verygay and attractive-looking for wear in sunshine climes.
A new tennis shoo had "cushions" or socks inside made of sponge rubber. Wellington boots made all in one piece which would not crack were ideal for children's use during wet weather.
