Bostonian shoes: how they went from the countryside to be a fashion basic

If we talk about male fashion, without a doubt Bostonian shoes are a basic that should never be missing in any comfortable and casual outfit.

Bostonian shoes were called in Mexico because that name occurred to the owner of the then popular Canada shoe store.

The funny thing is that until now it is unknown why he chose that name if the shoes were not manufactured or invented in Boston, but in the European continent.

The original name of this footwear is Brogue and the perforations it has are Brogging.

But what is not a mystery and it is something very interesting is its origin and history, because Bostonian shoes were designed exclusively for field work.

Zapatos bostonianos: cómo pasaron del campo a ser un básico de moda

The origin of the so -called Bostonian shoes dates back between the nineteenth and twentieth century in Scotland.

It is said that they were created especially for the men who worked in the field, because this footwear was perfect to endure muddy lands of Scotland and Ireland;places where much of the year rains.

At that time, the 'holeos' with which the Broker shoes were designed had a curious purpose: they served to let the accumulated water or mute leave the footwear, because it would be very uncomfortable to work long hours with completely closed shoes or that they did not have aSpecia of 'drainage'.

This is how this footwear was used for field work, but over time its use began to popularize in other areas.

One of the first people who used them was Eduardo VIII of the United Kingdom, who in the 1930s decided to put them to play golf and that was how little by little they became popular for casual use.

In fact, when people were already popular, people used them as if they were 'tennis' for their comfort, so the shoes that were considered formal at that time were the 'Oxford'.

Since then, Brogue shoes known in Mexico as Bostonian shoes are a must that should never be missing in any closet.
