On this day I decided I would buy a new pair of shoes. After checking out some shops in Bondi Junction I came out wearing a new pair of white skate hi vans. Later I met up with Kelvin and he said I had to at least go with him to the Spring Court shoe store and try on a pair of their similar looking shoes. I agreed and figured trying on a pair wouldn’t do any harm.
I had never heard of Spring Court and if you haven’t either I suggest you read a little about them.
“Spring Court is a vintage French shoe that has been made by the same family since 1936. Originally designed as a tennis shoe it features the unique four hole ventilation system and a very robust removable inner sole. The attention to quality is what sets Spring Court apart from other shoe manufacturers. The canvas shoes are made with an Egyptian cotton and is machine washable”

Spring Court classic lows. John Lennon wore these in white back in the 70s.

This piece was done by Ed Woodley, and Australian artist. Apparently I bear a resemblance which might possibly mean we’re related in some way or another.
I needed a classic durable black shoe that was stylish and comfortable. These fit the bill.

After Kane told me they dropped the price from $185 to $125 I was sold. Super comfortable, high quality, classic shoes. Took off my new Vans and walked out the store in the Spring Courts a happy customer. Big thanks to Kane for showing me around.
There shop is located at 13a Commonwealth St, Surry Hills NSW. You can also order online here www.springcourt.com.au
