I've passed a few times on a pair of French Shriner longwings with a V cleat which I think are from the late 60s/early 70s based on the logo. Wise / foolish?

After I found the Strands, I slipped over to the wimmenz section to pick up a few things for her.

Brunello Cucinelli scalloped-neck shirt, Tory Burch mirror-logo tee, James Perse ribbed tank, DL1961 denim, St. John satin pants, Prada mules, and Brooks Brothers ballerina flats with cute Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders bows. All the wimmenz stuff added up (with discount) to less than $40.
