How much did a pair of tennis shoes cost in 1950?

Righto, $3-$3.50. My favorties were Keds or especially PF Flyers. I swear I could run faster in them! It was actually a bit later than 1950, more like '55 or '56. I'm old but not THAT old. Okay, I am.

I don't know about 1950, but I know that Nike shoes in 1981 cost around $25 dollars. They were THE shoes at the time, and my mom absolutely refused to buy them because she thought they were outrageously overpriced. I had to save my allowance up to buy my own.
