Who would you sell pointy 60\'s sneakers to?? Hi! I'm doing shoes today...lots of shoes. I've got about a dozen pairs of vintage 50's - early 60's ladies pointy sneakers. They're old store stock and really neat! All sorts of colors and styles. Some lace up on the side of the foot. They've got names lïke: Surfer Slims, Sandpiper, Navy Taper, Blue Duck, Black Hop, Oceanside etc...Most are in larger sizes.<P>I see beach parties, Connie Francis, dancing at the Hop. Am I right? I don't think they're RAB and probably not for VLV. Keyword help please....Vintage Running Shoes Sneakers Thanks! Joanne
My goodness, i swear my mother had those exact sneakers down at the bottom there. I have never seen the side lace ones before. To me the early bobbysoxers were early 50s. These would be early 60s preppy. (not a bad thing, just a different thing) Maybe our better shoe experts will chime in though. Chris
early to mid 60s. (see picture) deffinately beach party style like you said... but more Donna Loren than Annette Funicello... perhaps there will be some pictures here: Brian's Drive In Theatre love, moons and starrs, Senti.*

Thanks a bunch everyone! This really helped.<P>I'd love to put in a link to my ebay auctions...I tried to do it in my profile but it was not a success..How do I do it? Sorry. I'm a total board virgin (well almost!) and not much of a computer whiz. Joanne
Check out this thread. http://www.vintagefashionguild.org/public/viewthread.php?tid=1178 Just do it in the signature box in your profile.
Oh yes, of course Chris! Duh!! I rarely ever use those green buttons, I just plum forget about them. I've added you to my "favorites" Joanne and will check back for the shoes! You've got some great fashions mags too! ~Maureen
Oh...my mind is having trouble with words tonight, but I remember calling these shoes a name associated with boating/sailing......I cannot put the right words in my head....sorry. (I like the other's suggestions, though....great info and ideas for keywords) Gail
Thanks everyone! I'm going with the Beach Party theme. Love it! Thanks Premierludwig for the "Brian's Drive In Theatre" link. Maureen, I'll be listing them (5 pairs for the moment) tomorrow afternoon. Hope I have your size. Joanne
