Are Any Buster Brown Shoe Stores Left in Michigan?
Of course I had Buster Brown shoes when I was a kid! Any self-respecting kid did his/her best to whine, pout, and cry until mom bought em a pair.
The famous logo had Buster in his antiquated pageboy-bob hairdo and Little Lord Fauntleroy suit, along with his creepy-looking dog, Tige. Tige had a wide, toothy grin that scared the crap outta kids.
But we didn t care. We wanted them-there shoes.
There were Buster Brown locations all throughout Michigan: Ann Arbor, Charlotte, Detroit, Flint, Lansing, Mount Pleasant, Port Huron, Saginaw, and many more locations. Never mind Keds, P.F. Flyers, or Red Ball Jets...forget those other brands! We wanted Buster Browns!
