Pink & White Saddle Shoes 90s Vintage Dexter 50s Style VFG
A classic saddle shoe updated just enough for fun! I believe these are probably 1990s. They are nicely made, with traditional welting around the upper complete with top stitching The spectator-style decorative perforations on the pink sections are a nice touch.
SIZE: Labeled size 9M
Measurements | Inches | Cm |
Length, heel to toe, inside | 10" | 25.5 |
Width across widest part of sole | 3.5" | 9 |
Heel height | 0.75" | 2 |
MATERIALS/COLORS: The uppers are white leather and pink nubuck. I believe the lining is also a combination of leather and nubuck, all white. The soles are a dark red dense material, dense but a little spongy.
MAKER: Dexter, made in U.S.A. Dexter started making boat shoes in 1957, and went on to become known for their bowling shoes. The company expanded into their own line of shoes, doing well through the 1970s and 80s. The family eventually sold the company in 1993, and it was folded into another company 8 years later.
CONDITION: The uppers are in excellent condition. However, the former owner must have had a puppy - the red faux-rubber heel of the left shoe has a few puncture/chew marks - see closeup. It's a cosmetic flaw that shouldn't affect wearability.
I measure the outside of garments, unless stated otherwise.
For menswear, the chest is measured at armpit level.
For womenswear, the bust is measured a little below armpit level, including the room created by darts or gathers.
Waist will be measured if there is one, and hips are measured about 9" below waist level. Sleeves are measured from shoulder seam or an approximation in the absence of a shoulder seam. Garment length is measured from the back of the neck, unless otherwise stated.
The measurement numbers refer to the garment, not the body inside. For best fit, measure a similar type of garment which fits you well and compare.
If the garment is shown on Josephine, my mannequin, her measurements are 31/24.5/34". Sometimes she wears a padded bra. My live models measurements vary depending on the day and year, and I don't ask them to share that.
