In the original US version of the book, they cost $10 ('Dad's ten dollar shoes'). In the UK version, they cost £7 (Dad's seven pound shoes).
Interestingly, the change from the original US currency to the UK currency is poetically pure but financially unsound. 'Pound' has one less syllable than 'Dollar'. Changing 'ten' to 'seven' fixes this and maintains the rhythm. But in 1958 when the book was written, £7 was worth about US$20!
In "The Cat in the Hat Comes Back," the dad's shoes cost $11.76. This amount is part of the bill the Cat in the Hat sends to the dad after causing mischief in the house.

How much are dresses shoes
Money wasn't worth as mush as it is worth today back then so, the average cost of shoes was about $1.00
if shoes were to be dis-continued we would have to go back to when people were walking around in no shoes again. playing in the olympics with no shoes running at school track day and your going to have to run in bare foot like back in the time when people had no shoes. people need to take shoes more for granted than running in the mud and messing up brand new shoes just to get new ones. people need to learn that shoes will go away if to much happens.
For pointe shoes, you also need toe pads and toe seperations, and that comes to about sixty dollars or more. The canvas pre-pointe shoes are usually around thirty dollars. Be aware that you have to sew the straps of the pre-pointe shoes. Normal leather ballet shoes can be from fifteen dollars or less to thirty dollars or more.
