THE FLEXU RiA, OR SPRING WAIST BOOT. T. WATSON IS the original maker of the Spring Waist Boot. By a steel spring being inserted in the waist of the boot it causes it to fit more closely to the hollow of the foot, thus giving an elegant appearance and symmetrical form to the foot. The " Flexura" improves the shape of the instep and gives increased comfort to the wearer. It is, therefore, highly recommended both to Ladies and Gentlemen, young and old, but especially to those who constantly run their boots over on one side.
