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.
