Calling the shoes by famous names is just a marketing gimick!
The merc shoes are ok quality -but for the best bowling shoes in UK(I've got
a pair), try JUMP THE GUN in Brighton- they have them made in black leather
by a pro. shoemaker, and they are v.comfy/smart!!!
Both brands are miles better than lambretta clothing.
a company bought the lambretta name, to make high st clothing - they are
nothing to do with the great scooter - and will ensure that we never see a
new lamby being made (shame on you!)
