POLLY Style, Mules and Spring-o-laTOR SHOES
Polly style mules as well as Spring-o-lator heels were made famous by pin-up girls, cocktail waitresses, burlesque dancers and starlets back in the early 1960's.
The star given most notoriety for wearing mules was Marilyn Monroe, although Jane Russell, her co-star, also loved wearing them. Polly shoes were launched in 1961 and became synonymous with the half metal/half wood heel that was deemed non breakable.These shoes are very similar to Polly shoes of the 1960s but are estimated to be manufactured during the 1980s. The shoes are extremely COMFORTABLE and easy to walk in.
Comment
This vintage shoes has been carefully looked after and are in excellent condition for their age. They appear to have never been worn and the only flaw I can see is slight markings on insole of shoes not visible when worn.
