FBI Ivy?

Walkover shoes...  navy raincoats...  have we had this before?  Probably but not to worry.  I did like Walkover but my feet must have grown whilst wearing them...  ouch...  My battered old Jarman Regencies are still going strong...  What a shoe...

I SPY FOR THE FBI, Jamo Thomas. Recall dancing to this in my teens at a Liverpool University 60s soul disco. I recall the allure of undergrad hotties gyrating to this charming Motown stomper. And Walkover did an FBI shoe! True. Well that's what JS called them. Austere 2-eyelet lace up, with a stitched top panel, a bit like the original Jam shoe, in black or brown grain leather. Very American but marginal Ivy I guess.

They were quite a frumpy shoe, true, possibly marginal, yes, but I did like them.

Re: FBI Ivy?

Jamo Thomas - great fun.  1966 was perhaps the peak year for all that Bond/Man From UNCLE/spy/cop craziness.  Watched a few of the original 'Mission Impossible' episodes two to three years ago.  Great looking women - and more.  What was the name of the black actor who played - Barney?  'TMFU' was pretty bad.  Massive at the time, though, with girls going bonkers over Ilya.

I believe Walkover brogues shrink with age. Which is very annoying.
