HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO DESIGN A PAIR OF EVINS SHOES?

All you have to do is come to Forman’s tomorrow or Tuesday and pretend you always have everything your own way. Like change a buckle, change a heel or dye a silk toe to match your lipstick. 

Then ask for Larry Piper, Davis Evins’ personal representative, who will be on hand to find out just what you want. If he thinks it can be done, then it’s yours. All this pampering can be had where you always buy those beautiful David Evins designs … in Forman’s Shoe Salon, Street Floor, Downtown.
