'Louis L'amour'

The original inspiration for this shoe was a Louis XIV era court shoe. But somehow, by the time it was finished it had transmogrified into a western ankle boot. The best laid plans can lead to better plans, I guess.  And this exemplifies my creative process, such as it is. Update 1/1/2014 - This shoe was originally named 'Cowboy Louie' but I am renaming it 'Louis L'amour' for what I think are obvious reasons.  I don't know why I didn't think of it before.
