WAIST BOOT, FOR both Ladies and Gentlemen, gives an elegant appearance and symmetrical form to Ihe foot, improving the shape of the instep, with increased comfort in wearing. 7; &.. Its chief feature is an Elastic Steel Spring inserted in the Waist of the Boot, causing-it to fit more closely to the hollow of the foot than the ordinary Boot. It; is highly recommended by the Medical Faculty as a support for flat feet and weak ankles, while at the same time it im proves the appearance and developes the shape of a well-formed foot by its surpassing elasticity. It is also completely successful in remedying uneven wearing, and possesses the important ad vantage of never losing its shape. _ ; The "FLEXURA" BOOT is also invaluable in supporting and training the feet of young people. The " FLEXURA" SPRING can be inserted of any strength—either light or strong ■—to suit all feet. > • "*" —-- ' *$g"f Observe the contrast t— Fig. I.— The Ordinary • ( Fig. 2.—The " Flexura" Boot, half worn. | Boot, half worn.
