Default are 70's shoes vintage?
If heels from the 70's are considered vintage then I own about 9 pairs of strappy highheel sandals with 3" and 4" heels. They are leather and in very good condition. 3 pairs size 5 and 6 pairs in size 10. I keep them in boxs for longer life.

They consider shoes from the 90s vintage... it seems anything more than about 3 years old is at least "retro" if not "vintage"...

To me---anything 3 decades or older is vintage. Nothing wrong with that to my way of thinking.

Everything else from the 70's is vintage so why not heels :)

if clothing from the 70s is vintage, then what does that make an active crossdresser from the late 50s?

dead?

jeez!

Lightbulb Re: are 70's shoes vintage?
Interesting how Footwear and Appearal can become either "Retro" or "Vintage" and keep coming and coming back, while Autos/Cars are "Classic" at 20 and then "Antique" at 25. Except for a recent handful, many have Never returned while at same time several "Antiques" have become "TRUE Classics".

On another note answering a bit of Johnieheel's ComiQuestion... Those of us from Late 50's will still be surely called "OLD FARTS" amunkst(?) other things.
~~ Li'l added "Food For Thought"... a t-shirt gift from my 50th proudly stated "I'M NOT 50, I'M ONLY $49.95 (+ TAX)" 8-D

GOOD GRIEF! I just realized that I have a pair of shoes under my bed that I got re-soled & heeled back in '91 - they were about 15 years old then!
