Uptown
“High Toe” Oxford for Out-of-door Wear
This has been called an “Illusion Shoe” for the reason
that your foot does actually look sizes smaller in it. This
effect is obtained by shortening the distance between toe-
cap and upper seam and arching the instep to carry a
graceful Cuban heel. The toe is comparatively wide,
rounded, and built up on the end, giving ample toe
room. A somewhat mannish style, but, withal, dainty
and perfectly correct, especially for ■ outdoor affairs.
