Saxon & Medieval — Late Medieval; late 14th-15th century
Shoe
Vamp from an adult size left foot shoe. The vamp has a shallow pointed toe and a rounded throat with a central cut in it. This cut may have been made at a later date to accommodate a larger foot or if the shoe was re-used second hand. There are stitch holes on the inside of either side of the throat for reinforcement cords.
