Styles in Bhocs, is n phraso that will
h&TO moro Blgnlflclcnco when used In
referring to tho Spring showing, than
Is usually Implied by the expression.
Tho elements of real stylo havo been
entering more and moro Into the con
etructlon of Bhocs for some seasons nnd
now that there Is a tendency on the
part of tho wenrer to take kindly to
novelties In shoes, makers have given
moro attention to the production of
novelties. The result is apparent in
tho Spring showing.
First of all, it may bo said that cloth
tops are expected to be a very im
portant factor in the Spring demand.
Cloth tops were introduced, or rather
rc-lntroduced for Fall and the discrim
inating dresser took to them at once.
Their introduction was in tho naturo of
nn experiment, and was limited to a
very small number of combinations.
Tho forthcoming season will bring out
many more, among them,- gray uppers
over either Black or Tan, gray over
lanjthite aver gray or black these
and variations from theso fundamental
colors. Whlto over patent and gray
over patent will it is thought, bo the
popular combinations for such semi
dress affairs which usually occur at the
country club or for lawn functions. All
of thtfeo combinations will appear in
Oxfords for Spring.
The Custom or English last is easily
the favorite. Flat or 78 heels lead.
and n general tendency favoring the
long vamp is apparent. It is said that
wo are getting away from tho short
vampB. The long forequarter styles arc
expected to lead by a wide margin
This Is a move in the direction of
greater comfort.
Tho business man it is thought will
call for blacks or dark tans. In fact
there is n strong disposition to favor
the darker shades of tan In both the
regular and the Oxford Bhocs. While
there may be some pumps worn on the
street this is not expected to be -an au
thorltative vogue. The oxfords of gen
eral use will be the regular neigh ts.
Jiulton. Bhocs. lead strongly although
provisions havo been made for tho man
who favors tho laco or the blucher, the
latter being favored by many who take
to comfort, or who may 'have troublo
in getting shoes that will give the least
degreo of discomfort to tender feet.
Another feature which is Incorporated
in the Spring styles Is the rubber solo
and another, the Elkskln sole. These
havo hitherto been used mainly in
shoes for outing purposes, nnd for that
matter will continue to be a feature of
tho construction of outing shoes, but
they will become more and more a fea
ture of shoes for general purpose and
street wear.
Rubber or Elkskln soles have never
been surpassed for walking comfort,
nnd It Is this that makes them fa
vorites. They may be had with either
tnn or black uppers, and either In flat
heel or with a separate heel. It is
thought that the separate heel will bo
in the lead owing to the natural desire
to require n heel support. They come
moBtly in the straight bal.
It Iq conimejiicjLin-the-fltQros that
there has been n distinct tendency to
ward the higher priced shoes.
White cloth shoes and whltp buck
will it is thought also bo favorites
mainly for semi-outing wear. Buttons
will also offer another novel feature, in
that they will be of various shades
harmonizing with tho leather of tho
lower part of the shoe or with the
cloth of the upper. For the man with
the highly developed Idea of color har
mony the color schemes that may be
worked out in a man's attire by the
use of footwear effects harmonizing
with the hose, the suit, hat or some
other, Indeed all other articles of ap
parel offer wonderful possibilities. The
same conditions may hold some degree
of terror for the man who is little
versed or used to combining colors.
