Hush Puppies
Woman's Realm: 11th March 1967
"Breathing brushed pigskin", now that's a phrase that I've NEVER seen used to sell shoes! I love the bassett hound in this photo, and it's a nice example of period footwear, for the fashionistas amongst you.

When these shoes got wet, the dye used to come off onto the heels of my (white) knee socks. Living in Salford, this meant I spent the summer of 1967 with brown heels. Not a good look.
Ah, that's why they didn't bother making any promises about the dye staying on the shoes, then! Thanks :)
I used to love Hush Puppies when I was little. They were very comfy and actually did smell nice :) (well before they were worn lol).
