OK, SPRING WAIST BOOT, FOR both Ladies and Gentlemen, gives an elegant appearance and symmetrical form to the foot, improving the shape of the instep, with increased comfort in wearing.

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 dovelopes the shapo 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.
