September 2005 -įį Converse continues to offer wonderfully exciting
new shoes each season.į Watch for
incoming products about every 2 weeks.į
The colors and patterns just get better and better.
Will Smith helped design the I Robot
shoe out of the gorgeous soft glove leather last year.į We were one of very few stores allowed to
offer that product.į It was so successful;
Converse is making the shoe again.į This
is one great shoe - warmer for winter since it is leather.į
The current movie shoe is Batman.į It is another gorgeous leather show with a
great very subtle bat spreading its wings from the back spine across to the
counters toward the ankle bone.į This has
been another very popular shoe.
News of Downtown Madison
- After two summers of total chaos due to construction, we are finally seeing
the results of all of the hard work.į If
you are near Madison,
it is worth a trip to Jack's Shoes to see the new multi million dollar art
district right across the street.į This is
being built with the largest donation by a single person in history, according
to local news.į It is a fantastic
facility and worth touring.
We continue to learn more and more about
running a website.į Things change so
quickly and there is so much to learn, it is overwhelming.į But it is fun to hear so many of you so happy
with our service and the great shoes.į
Enjoy!
May 2003: Converse has shown some fantastic new products over the last year. However, deliveries from Converse have become so delayed, we have been forced to remove any future pre-ordering from Jack's Shoes Website. We will post new product as soon as any part of the style is received.
We appreciate your patience while we continue to receive product for previous pre-orders. We will ship orders the same day product is received into our store.
We will have a UPS confirmation letter sent for all UPS shipments. This will be sent to the email you provided with your order and will let you know your order is on its way to you. This delivery notice will include the tracking number so you may track your package if you wish.
On behalf of everyone at Jack's Shoes, we appreciate your patience and support while we get through the delivery delays. Hopefully the new site set up will avoid these problems in the future.
The new Converse are well worth the wait. Enjoy them when they arrive!!!
Best regards,
Jack and Connie Amundson, Owners
