Sandals with side wallsThe fibers of the sandals can be woven or spiraled, with a formal sole shaped according to the sole of the foot. Sometimes the toe can be raised and held by a vertical strip, perhaps to prevent the sand from entering the shoe. The footwear shows great attention to detail and great skill in execution.Made of vegetable fibers. New Kingdom, ca. 1550-1070 BC. Now in the Egyptian Museum of Turin. -- source link
