Many people think that shoes must be
, tight and pinch the foot in order to look neat
and dressy. But comfort need not give way
to style.
Right Fitting Is
the Keynote
Dress shoes that we fit to your feet
can be just as comfortable as shoes you buy for
service. And we do not sacrifice either style
or neatness in fitting you.
Our pumps, dancing slippers and all
sorts of dress shoes offer you a wide field for
