"Eliza" Early Victorian Shoes (Grey/Black)(1830-1860s)

Eliza Early Victorian Shoes are a wonderful addition to any ladies' daywear costume of the early to mid 19th century. Based directly on extant examples of foxed low shoes from the 1830s to the 1860s, Elizas offer the unique look and style of original ladies' early Victorian footwear with the comfort of modern shoes.

The houndstooth upper is foxed with calf leather on the heels and square toes, offering protection from wear while remaining feminine and attractive. The split vamp lacing closure allows adjustability for all insteps, and the leather soles make Eliza Early Victorian Shoes great for your Romantic Era, Victoria, Dickens Fair, and early Civil War events.
