I remember Snob. Mine were a sort of burgundy colour, and the platforms weren’t very high then, but still people nudged each other and pointed in the street.

I am still recovering from the shoes.
They were suede and blue.
I bought them in Snob (remember Snob?) and they were called Sasha shoes.
I found a similar pair this year by Camper and it was a big moment.

Do you mean recovering from the shoes? Or the boredom? Either way, it is all quite desperate.

I liked this post. I found 1970’s Kent deeply boring – we were turfed out after lunch to have fresh air and loiter in the excitingly named ‘rec’, I cycled to school and went to an interminably boring girls grammar where you had to wear ties and hats.
The most exciting thing that ever happened to me was platform shoes.
I am still recovering.
