You can wear a closer fit in the
Red Cross Shoe than in any other
because of its flexible sole. This sole
is tanned by the Special Red Cros9
Tanning Process which makes it so
flexible that you can bend it almost
double when new. It moves with
your foot just as a glove moves with
your hand.
Come in and try on the Rd Cross Spring Models. You need try on only one pair to
be convinced of the perfect fitting qualities and wonderful comfort of this shoe.
