This pair of ankle-length boots, made by Chalopin circa 1830-1840, demonstrates the intricate craftsmanship of the era. The boots, crafted from white silk and black satin, feature delicate embroidered details on the uppers and a unique design where the black satin sole wraps around the toe. These boots are a prime example of 19th-century footwear and offer insight into the fashion trends of the time.

These ankle-length boots were probably made from an older pair of shoes. When they went out of fashion, the Parisian cobbler Chalopin attached a silk tricot throat (stocking). This was tied at the side with a cord.
