Some Chicago Boyz know each other from student days at the University of Chicago. Others are Chicago boys in spirit. The blog name is also intended as a good-humored gesture of admiration for distinguished Chicago School economists and fellow travelers.

Looks like the same pair I wore in college. But the scuff by the big toe had grown to a real hole by the time they went in the dumpster. I’d say you’ve got a good 2 years left for that one, more if you wear galoshes.
Cute photo and caption.
This CB/G bought the following shoes, recently:

Now that one looks like a Chicago shoe, complete with slush salt staining. The one about is too clean looking. Maybe a summer shoe.
That should read, “the one above.” Old age is trying.
Actually, a newer shoe. The salt stains will show up soon.
I’m betting military history is being discussed above this shoe.
Time for a proper burial.
I have a 2 pairs of old Florsheim Kenmoors (from back when they were made in the US, in black and brown) that are about 20 years old. It’s amazing how long they last when you put a Topy on the bottom, only wear them one day and then rotate to the other, and give them a nice polish with some shoe cream every couple of weeks.
White sox at a function? You wouldn’t be NFL super flopper Gino Torretta, would you? He showed up to the Heisman ceremony wearing a black suit with white sox. You can polish those wingtips up too.
Thanks for the reminder of a previous CB fashion installment.
Good times.
