What they are
The Rag and Bone Newbury Boot is a low-profile boot. They are made from leather, but it is mostly comprised of thick leather that is sewn together to form the boot. The 4½-inch heel makes this boot tall enough to be eye-catching.
The Newbury Boot is a classic style that has been around for a long time. It was created during the Restoration period, when people wanted a soft, plush footbed to sit on.

Who invented them
Newbury boot design was born out of necessity. As the rest of society has gotten bigger and more organized, the need for a new type of boot has increased. People were finding it hard to fit into traditional leather boots and shoes.

Newbie feet were the worst sort of feet to buy shoes for because they cannot tell if they are wearing them right or not. Newbury bootmakers tried their best to make their new boots easy to wear and fit right out of the box.
