EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dating back to approximately 1895, showcases a selection of Our Boys Clothing Company's riding and top boots. The image transports us back in time to the Victorian era, where these sturdy footwear pieces were essential for young boys engaged in equestrian activities. The boots, displayed in a neat row on a wooden table, exhibit the intricate details and high-quality craftsmanship that defined Our Boys Clothing Company's offerings. The riding boots, with their tall, laced-up designs and distinct heel, were perfect for securing a firm grip in the stirrups while riding horses. The top boots, on the other hand, were versatile footwear options suitable for various occasions, both casual and formal. The boots' rich, dark leather color and polished finish exude an air of sophistication and durability, reflecting the active lifestyles of the boys they were intended for. The presence of a horse in the background further emphasizes the connection between the footwear and the equestrian culture of the time. Our Boys Clothing Company, a leading retailer in the late 19th century, catered to the department store market and offered a wide range of clothing and footwear for boys. This photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the company's extensive collection of riding and top boots, which were undoubtedly popular choices for young boys seeking functional and fashionable footwear during the Victorian era.
