I've been extraordinally pleased with the civilian shoes carried by this site--we've got about 8 pair running around in our little traveling circus, in both work and dress shoes. While the date is some 15 years before our period, there's little change in the fashions of a working man's shoe.
The brogans give every exterior appearance of a straight last shoe. Inside though, there is a an arch support, creating a right and left. The toe box is unusually long, leaving a nice amount of room for thick socks. A caution though--call and talk about sizing, for it bears little resemblance to modern sizing.

Yassir, I used to be Mrs. Lawson. I still run period dyepots, knit stuff, and cause trouble.
