WEYENBERG
“Massagic”
7-Eyelet, Cap-Toe Oxford
Circa 1940
Euro 550Out of the over 200 American Shoemakers clustered around New England at the start of the 20 Century, only a handful remain, among them Bostonian, Cole-Haan, J &M and, in Europe, the better know Alden and Allen-Edmonds. The great Florsheim, Hanover, Cordwainer, Nunn-Bush, Bostonian and the maker of this fine shoe, Weyenberg exist today as marketing firms, the bulk of their wares being produced off-shore or do not exist at all. Lamentable.
The Cap-Toe Oxford is a standard today but the 7-Eyelet model is rarely seen and identifies it as a mid- or early 20th century product. This is a marvelous classic model in the old tradition of workmanship, a handsome and extremely durable shoe in a hundred year old tradition. Hand-welted in contrasting twine.
Size Details:
US 8D.…..UK 7E…..European 41D, for the medium width foot.
Shoe Condition:
Excellent, very lightly worn and all original. Superb!

“Massagic”
7-Eyelet, Cap-Toe Oxford
Circa 1940
Euro 550Diese Paar wurde von dem grossen amerikanische Schuhmacher Weyenberg hergestellt. Die Leisten des Schuhes sind kompromisslos und absolut und sofort an Ihrem hohen Massanfertigungs-Standard erkennbar. Hand-rahmengenäht.
Der Oxford scheint mit einem Leisten gemacht zu sein, der für den amerikanischen Fuss passender und robuster ist. Letztendlich eine gute “Heirat” zwischen Form und Qualität.
Size Details:
41D.... (UK 7E....US 8D), fuer den mittel-breiten Fuss
Shoe Condition:
Orginal-Sohle und Absatz sehr leicht getragen. Neuwertig.
