styles or lack thereof resulted in issues unless referenced. Classic styles are clearly desired today by both young and old, and it appears all three brands under Weyco have realized this as it appears to me they have held on to their most timeless classic shapes. The finest most intelligent and sophisticated men's style blogs and sites surely support classics and timeless footwear. My point? It appears to me there is an unjustified language emphasis on new or trendy or mass-popularity and that is IMHO not what I see in reality or in the press or on the site or sites, so such language repeated is I think both limiting and not encyclopedic without substantial references that those types of styles are big sellers for any brand. I see slight mention in the New York Times article toward trend or updating that I have to admit made me cringe yet by what I am reading in the articles it makes me wonder if PR people are involved. Frankly, regardless of brand today, the language push to trendy or younger or age-group (IMHO all three groups are not often ready, willing and able buyers) I find odd and if it is put in or out there I feel should include strong encyclopedic references to support it.

It appears to me there are a number of remarks about fleeting mass-culture and styles when these brands of Weyco including
Florsheim, Nunn Bush and Stacey Adams were built on classic styles and thrive on them apparently to this day. It is a bit strange in my opinion to allude that shifts to trendy
755:
I have a pair of inexpensive standard oxfords made in China that I bought in the U.S. about two years ago. the original insole says 'FLORSHEIM established 1892.' The soles of the shoes also say
Florsheim. So it appears that the company is making shoes in China (or having them made there).
691:
I don't think that
Journeys or Finish Line should be blamed in this article. I think that if anything is to blame, it's the fact that people's tastes in shoes have shifted to styles that are hipper, trendier and less formal over the centuries.

Is there any substantiation for the claim that almost every mall in
America had a Florsheim store? That seems to be a very bold claim to be completely unsubstantiated.
