Muddy High Heels

I had mentioned in an earlier post that my aunt had worn a pair of heels the first day of a trip to Paris to try to be fashionable. The heelshurt her feet and she swapped them out for her Keds for the rest of the trip but I had a few good nights with her smelly heels and the keds. Those heels were trashed 20 years ago but she still has them after all these years. I have no idea how old they are but this is what sweaty feet can do to a pair of heels. They are my favorites but unfortunately they no longer smell and I do not know if she ever wears them. I would love to burn them but she would miss them.

They look like they are mid 1980s to mid 1990s to me.
Poor old shoes need a good bath with some nice suds to clean them up then after drying maybe a nice moisturiser cream and polish. Perhaps a pair of shapers to put the toe box in the correct posture and they will be good as new, clean the i sides especially in the washing phase to get rid of as much crud and those dirty old toe prints that so ruin a nice shoe like these.
Then they are good to go.

I’d guess mid 80s, I’d love to get my dremmel tool out and send them to my high heel. Junkyard, lol, the whir of the dremmel motor and vintage shoe pieces flying as the get cut up for scrap, removeing the steel arch supports for recycling, A very sad messy death
