EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the Jazz Age with these stylish Len-Glen tennis and summer shoes, as advertised in the Eve magazine in 1927. The Pentagon Len-Glen shoes were a must-have accessory for the modern and fashionable woman of the 1920s. Suzanne Lenglen, the renowned French tennis player and fashion icon, endorsed these shoes, adding to their allure. The 1920s, also known as the Roaring Twenties, was a decade of cultural and social transformation. Women's fashion underwent significant changes, with a focus on comfort, functionality, and style. Len-Glen shoes were designed to meet these needs, offering both comfort and elegance. The tennis shoes featured a sleek, low-profile design, making them perfect for both on and off the court. The summer shoes, on the other hand, were ideal for dancing the night away at the jazz clubs that were all the rage during this era. The shoes came in various colors, including black, white, and beige, allowing women to coordinate them with their outfits. The Eve magazine advertisement showcases a chic woman wearing a flapper dress and Len-Glen shoes, exuding confidence and sophistication. The caption reads, "Len-Glen Shoes - The Perfect Combination of Comfort and Style." The shoes were priced at $3.50, making them an affordable luxury for many women. The Len-Glen shoes were more than just footwear; they were a symbol of the times, representing the spirit of the Jazz Age and the modern woman's desire for independence and self-expression. Today, they remain an intriguing piece of history, offering a glimpse into the fashion trends and cultural shifts of the 1920s.
