Retro Fan, I don't have any insight or experience with Playboys, but I just wanted to welcome you to the thread and say that I thoroughly enjoyed your reminiscence.

Just in case anyone wants to know the thickness of the sole, it is approximately 1-1/8" in the front, 1-1/4" on the sides. and the heel is 1-5/8.

Ta for the updates RF....
I'm really considering an original brown suede pair..
Sizing an issue mind...
Hope you get to enjoy em anyhoo..
This thread has rattled my interest in the made in Spain PB's..
Does anyone know anything more about the factory in Spain? I've been trying to find out exactly where they are made here, but I'm not having much success.
Being an expat in Spain, I'd like to pop along to see if there's any deals to be had?
You scratch my back, and I'll send you a pair of PB's if there's any to be had (wink)

I'd like to know some of the origins of PBs being made in Spain?
Has there always been a history of this, or is it a fairly recent partnership?
I just assumed the UK was their Graceland... A Ha Ha!
Cheers! My name is Martin. I live in Sweden. I find it interesting to read that our Playboy shoes are loved elsewhere too. But sadly difficult to get hold of over there. Here in the northern countries it is Cold so we need a really thick sole, so please do not say they are too thick. They can never be too thick. Well, I admit I enjoy reading Your comments and Pictures of the chunky playboy chukkas. They look even better when they are used. Thanks Tominsky for showing your Brown Playboys with the really thick sole. These Pictures are almost like porn. Well this is actually why I send this question. Could You help me out?
I am not gay, but seeing other men in these shoes turns me on. I am not comfortable with this fact at all. I would like this obsession to pass. Because it is too queer... Since these shoes are almost common here I see them Walking around almost every day, on the bus, in the shop, on the streets, and they Always catches my Eye and disturb my thoughts. Some guys really show them too, so that it is impossible to miss them. Please, tell me what to do!!!
Would there be more gentlemen having the same problem??? That would make my day...
Ok. Most sincearely apologizing if this stuff was too inappropriate for the forum!
Congratulations! You've managed to combine two meanings of the word "trolling" in one post.
Finally a decent poster arrives.
Hello
I am new here and been searching for more info on the Swedish Playboy Huttons.
Anybody else bought a pair since this thread was last updated in 2015?
The Cognac ones look very nice and very Bullitt in colour!
Cheers
