This is a leather shoe that once belonged to the valiant and revered American Dragoon, Peter Francisco.  He was wounded many times in battle, killed several enemy soldiers while near George Washington, and was considered a highly respected man by his fellow soldiers.  The shoe measures around 4.25″ x 4.5″ x 12.3″, and in American show sizing would be sized at about a 10-1/2 D.    For source and more details, click here.
