Hi there everyone,
Just wondering about the date of these shoes (1970s?) and wondering what the term is for this type of leather.
Thanks alot,
Lauren

Its called an antique finish in the industry - the leather is boarded (stamped) with the design and then a darker colour is rubbed in before they are waxed. It was very popular in the early-mid 70s.
