Need someone who knows shoes!

[Nongolferwithshoes]

I have a pair of golf shoes that don't seem to have a makers mark on them. when I figure out how this forum works and get to post count (if there is one) I will post a picture of them. If anyone would be able to give me an idea of who made them, a date on when (possibly) and maybe a value. Who knows, maybe someone here could use them! Thanks in advance and any info on how to post a picture would be much appreciated! Im accustomed to forums, just not this one.

Does it  say "Dexter" on the spikes?

If so, they are Dexters, made by Dexter shoe company, a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway.

Likely made in the late 80's or early 90's at the latest, as metal spikes were starting to go away by then.

Little to no value-like $1 at a yard sale- as most courses don't allow metal spikes and they aren't old enough to have collector value. Now if you could document that Tom Watson wore them, different story.

Reloader are you?  I was never into rifles; shotguns are more my thing.

Far more a reloaded. Those are the kind of competition she I do! Most golf I’ve played it putt putt....ages ago.

This is difficult to decipher.  No offense but could you give that another go?

Between auto correct and my phone, that was crazy! On my laptop now. I meant, I’m far more a reloader, than a golfer. Those are the competitions that I do (shooting, not actual reloading). Lol, and the most golf I’ve ever played was putt putt! I apologize for the cryptic message.

No problem.  I just noticed the Hornady stuff in the background and recognized a kindred spirit.  Welcome to the game of golf...another form of madness.

The only thing is says on the spikes is hardend steel.

Oh well. They look like some Dexters I had back in the day.

I am an RCBS man myself by the way, but not very active. I've had a couple of false restarts in the past couple of years, though.

Thank you. I have no favorite brand. I find that different brands have different purposes. Hornady is go to to for straight wall cases though.
