Leather Shoes by Type (10) Side gore boots

Side gore boots, as the name suggests, are boots with gussets on both sides and elastic gore material. They are characterized by an ease of putting on and taking off that is not found in other boots. The “plain toe” boot is often designed with no decoration, and is known as a boot that can be worn with a suit style because of its simple look and formal roots.
Incidentally, it is said that the boot originated in the mid-1830s when a leather shoe manufacturer based in London, England, introduced the side gore design for Queen Victoria, who had just been crowned at the time, in order to make boots that were easy to put on and take off and fit well. It is interesting to note that the origin of the brand is surprisingly women’s shoes.
