Don’t Step on My Black Leather Slip-Ons

The number of full service shoe websites seems to be soaring. However, on most of them, men’s footwear is omitted or only given a cursory node, mainly providing the men’s version of a few pairs of western boots. elvis.gifGotham City Online offers several lines for the guys, and they run from the slightly trendy to the more unusual sneaks.

Wood you have guessed that the shoes, at left, were tennis shoes? I would never have given them that label, but since I am not the manufacturer or peddler, I just have to “go with it.”  At left is the “Elvis” Sullivan shoe, made of leather in a slip on configuration. Monogrammed studs, gold and of course a huge cutout gothic letter “E” rounds out the package.  I wonder what “The Kind” would have thought of these, unless they are really fashioned with “El Vez,” the Mexican Elvis Impersonator or The Flying Elvi in mind.  If it were the latter, then they will sell out immediately as there are quite a few of those guys.

Upon further research, Elvis Shoes was inspired by the early years of Elvis “before he became inaccessible;” when he “picked his own wardrobe.”  Do you think the early Elvis would have chosen shoes like this? As a side note, it seems that the shoe du jour is the sneaker these days. No one is styling dress oxfords “inspired by the stars” these days.
