WEYENBERG
“Massagic”
7-Eyelet, Cap-Toe Oxford
Circa 1940
Euro 550

Out 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. Many 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. With its chisel-toe, and mottled finish, this is a marvelous classic model in the old practice of workmanship, a handsome and extremely durable shoe in a hundred year old tradition. Hand-welted in contrasting twine.
Size: US 10D.…..UK 9E…..European 43-43.5D, for the medium width foot.
Condition: Excellent, very lightly worn and all original. Superb!

Diese 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.
Grösse: 43-43.5D…. (UK 9E….US 10D), fuer den mittel-breiten Fuss
Zustand: Orginal-Sohle und Absatz sehr leicht getragen.
