wow, i loved my eastland boots! of course the rich kids had them way before i did.

does anyone remember how to tie the curly-q's like we done back then??

I loved those shoes and thought i was soooo cool. Don't you just keep twisting the strings?

The Falmouth by Eastland ... they are still in production!!! Hard to explain, but to make the curly laces you would fold the shoe lace in half then wrap around it like 6-7 times and then pull the end through the loop that was made.

I loved my eastlands,but I can remember they always came untied.

I remember buying my eastlands and they came with the instructions on how to tie the special curly knots. They were called campers mock knots.

I loved mine! As soon as I outgrew a pair or I wore them out, I would get another pair. It would take allllll night to get those laces looped and comfortable and not too tight, then you spent the whole next day at school re-adjusting them for the perfect slip-on fit. I hated how the inside of the leather would stain your white socks that reddish color for like an entire month till they wore in LoL

man...eastlands and bomber jackets...takes me back.miss those days
