The most common men's shoe in Victorian England was the brogan, an ankle-high boot-type laced shoe. For the poor, this would typically be either a good shoe bought secondhand - as in modern thrift stores - or a cheap shoe bought new and nursed along until it fell apart. In either case, the fit would be questionable, at best - period accounts record the very poor cutting the toes off of too-small secondhand shoes to make them fit.
