Spitfire “LV-C” Low Top Canvas Shoes
This design is based on the Spitfire “LV-C” (Serial EP548) flown by World War II Canadian pilot Wing Commander Lloyd Chadburn whilst serving with 127 Wing RCAF. Chadburn became the youngest Squadron Leader in the RCAF at the age of 21 and scored five enemy airplanes destroyed (three shared), five aircraft probably destroyed (one shared), seven aircraft damaged (two shared), two E-boats destroyed, and another two damaged, as well as a destroyer damaged. On 13 June 1944, Chadburn was killed in a mid-air collision with another Spitfire pilot while taking off from a landing strip in Normandy. He was 24 years old. At the time of his death, he had been awarded the Distinguished Service Order & Bar, the Distinguished Flying Cross and Croix de Guerre (France)
