Bates Floaters

This shoe ,hard as this is to believe was a fad footwear when I was in early highschool in the 60s . They were called bates floaters then too or we called them floaters . I remember them as being very comfortable shoes and I think I might buy a pair again soon . Mums sister mentioning Whinklepickers reminded me of footwear of my past and I looked up these floaters online . For information on whinklepickers see mums blog and I have no intention of trying to find that type of shoe at this point in my life. Allan
