The History of Leather Shoes
Shoes have been used for millennia to protect the feet and more recently as an item of decoration or fashion. The earliest forms of footwear were fabricated from bark, twine, and other nature-made materials.

Leather shoes originated over 5000 years ago. At that point, they were made from a single piece of cowhide, then fastened with a leather cord. Many shoes nowadays are still made from leather, but we also have a vast variety of other materials to choose from.
