    Durable and inexpensive work shoes called brogans were made using heavy cowhide and constituted the majority of shoes made during the colonial era. These hard-wearing shoes were cut with the flesh side facing out and the smooth side worn against the foot so that the shoe did not need to be lined. (English)
