Some Vintage Boots. Very nice closed channel sole, I think. I'm guessing 1930's.
Style looks right & the Kangaroo Kraze was in full swing during the 30's. I recently got a 1936 Weyenberg catalog, and nearly half of their top-line models were offered in Kangaroo as well as Calf.
I don't understand why Kangaroo has fallen out of favor with modern shoemakers for the most part. It's VERY lightweight & just refuses to dry out & crack.
Anyway...
Kangaroo was so popular because it had all the smoothness of calf with all the strength of bull.
What size are those? I have a customer looking for a pair just like those in a size 7 give or take.
