New Service - One result of the interest in burnished browns has been a new service to be offered cus tomers by some men's shot stores. Brown shoes can be entiqued by hand to the exact blend the customer fancies. Elegance comes even to casual shoes. The chukka boots are particularly hand some, and . are featured in brushed leather and ' sof t .glove leather, often fastening withb uckles and straps. Newest of all are the boot shoes that, just reach the ankle, combining warmth and trim style. This light, trim look is' given many in formal dress shoes by a cat's tongue closing called-Velcro, that grips like two adhesive sponges. ' - Whether dressy or casual, the new note is the richness of the darkened browns. Fall is the season when the male animal- puts on handsome plumage, and, as the old say ing goes, a man's sex appeal lies in' the well-shod look of his feet. , , .DUTY SHOES Well - styled duty shoes are the National Shoe Institute's good hews for working women.

If people all over the country walk around all winter with their eyes on the ground it will be because of the imagination and origi nality to be found on shoes this Fall. - According to the National Shoe Institute, 800 million or naments are being used on casual shoes, walking shoes, boots, dress shoes and at-home slippers. This adds up to a co lossal , number of buckles, bows and buttons. Excitement in tjnmings starts with the lollrpop set, who are enjoying gaily-color-e laces with ornament-shaped tips on their small oxfords and boots. Metal eyelets and circus brass rings dress up children's school shoes. Felt flowers v and flower - shaped metal buckles grow on little girls' party shoes. Boys' boots have wood or leather toggle closings, or dashing 'belt-and-buckle decorations. Their step in shoes sport kiltie tongues or kiltie laces. Junior Miss The junior miss is likely to .choose whimsy on her school flats, and there is plenty to choose from-S-rangihg from a threaded needle and embroi dery stitches on a turned-over tongue, to a metal whistle that really blows, or corks that bob on shoe laces. She can pick flat-bowed step-ins or fat-tas-seled ones. Her newest party shdes may sparkle with widely- s p a c e .d multi - colored stones, or dangle a rhinestone from a high, curled tongue. . Her big sister and her moth er are showing their prefer ences for matching or con trasting trims of leather buck les, for Tthin strips of self leather twisted into bows, into knots, and into braided laces with metal catches. ; Ombre bows of kid or suede are jaunty on low-cut pumps. Fabric bows are draped and cut with couturier care to ornament afternoon s h o e s. Often they . re fastened by an eye-catching metallic loop or a jeweled button. Details Cut-out details on the vamp of a shoe pre. sometimes high lighted by -tiny flashing but tons, metal tabs, or sparkly beads. For evening frou-frou touches of self-fabric in lame, faille, or satin are fastened with crystal or rhinestone bars. Sometimes whole vamps are studded with multi-colored jeweled flowers. Silk roses bloom at shoe throats, at the back of a heel, or buds wind down .the vamp toward the toe.

Handsome "car coats and suburban coats, cold-defying outerwear, and trim sport jackets teamed with slimmer slacks characterize the new season's leisure-wear. The Continental v influence is very strong in the new gar ments , and they ' incorporate ideas that stem from the Al pine regions as well as from near-Artctic Scandinavia. The use of fur and the "fur look" is ' more evident than ever in the collars and linings of outerwear. Some of the sub urban coats are a bit longer, while some surcoats are a bit shorter. Real cabretta leath ers get into the sportswear picture via short car coats and longer suburban styles. Pile Fabrics Important , . Pile fabtics play an im portant part in the outerwear winter coats. There are al paca piles, wool piles and pile fabrics Jhat are made entirely of mand-made fibers. , Duffle-type coats in loden cloths and wpol meltons are enjoying a revived surge of popularity. Some of these are made with attached parkas, some have detachable hoods and some are reversible. The reverse side of the duffle coat is usually a water-resistant iri descent cotton gabardine or poplin' fabric. , ' . . 'Wide wale corduroys, shearling lambskins and sued ed cottons are but a few of bouncy note to the season's shoe picture, already a color ful one full of fashion news and newness. li presents - i''Ti' - 'i'iiiirY"T - ' - 'i the other fabrics, featured in the comfortable outercoats. ' Sports jackets must ' be viewed in several categories i this season. First, there are the classic Ivy styles with their natural shoulder. Next come .the new Continental models .with either natural shoulders or the slightly squarer tailored shoulders. Then . the California - types with concave shoulders ,and flattering body lines. Each is ah entity unto' it self and has certain character istics in common with , the others. Blazers, for instance, are very popular in all mod els of the current sports jack ets. Ranging from the classic conservative navy blues with gilt buttons to bold stripes and handsome plaids as well as hopsacking fabrics, the blaz ers are becoming probably the most widely worn . type of casual jacket. ' , . . Lightweight worsteds with a nappy look, colorful shet lands, burly tweeds and fleecy loden cloths all find enthusi astic fans among sports jack et fans. . Bold Patterns Return The big news in all sports jackets is the return of bold patterning. Big checks, bright plaids, glen plaids, hounds tooth checks . and overplaids are seen in the tweeds and also smooth fabrics. However, college , men seem to prefer very .subdued stripes in their Shetland jackets and some old grads go for shetlands and tweeds , in plain, weaves brightened by red, gold, blue or green shades. , , Slacks are slim in line but comfortable in design. The Ivy styles carry flapped back pockets and the Continentals have angled front pockets. - an inspired showing of Silks Go Info Evening Dress Shoes Ever since the famous glass slipper drew the dream door prize, party shoes have brought out the Cinderella in women.
