captionPic from Caters News Agency (PICTURED: 330 year old shoes, set to auction for 1,000). These shoes are set to stomp off to a high price at auction and fetch a cool 1,000. And they were only designed to keep nicer shoes out of the muck. The 330-year-old footwear would have been strapped to the bottom of a much finer pair. The strange metal loop would have been nailed to a wooden sole to allow the wearer to balance and keep their feet clean in the filthy streets. The overshoes, also known as pattens, date back to 1690 and were discovered in the roof of a Nottinghamshire country house. SEE CATERS COPY
