Minnie Cooper brown crocodile printed leather derby shoes, 2010s
These brown lace-up derby style shoes made of imitation crocodile printed leather hail from a later period in Minnie Cooper's career, as noted by the embossed, modernised logo present on the interior of the shoe, a change from her fabric labels present in earlier years. They feature all leather construction, a mark of quality that Cooper's shoes came to be known for.
