There has been tremendous transformation in shoes, especially during the following key eras in the history of the world. Prehistoric period (2, 5 million BC – 1250 BC) was characterized by primitive footwear, while Antiquity (1250 BC – 476) was typified by sandals. What made the Middle Ages (476 – 1453) distinguished from other eras was the discovery of high-heeled shoes.
On the other hand, Early Modern Times (1453 – 1918) was indicative of modern footwear during the Renaissance and Baroque periods. Modern Times (1918 – present) is marked by the altered face of footwear mainly due to technological advances. This period is known to make the entire process of shoemaking far simpler.
