And Malcolm X Wore Florsheim...
'... the Cadillac of shoes...'
From Jervis Anderson's fascinating 'Harlem: The Great Black Way, 1900-1950'.
You'd better believe it.

This, incidentally, would be when he was jumping at the Savoy in the 1940s.

This thread might be used to complement any ongoing discussions on Jason Jules - who probably knows all this stuff from researching his book.
Did X continue to dress in a conservative, All-American manner when his Savoy jumping days were done with and he turned into one serious dude?
