Celebrating Leicester's Shoe Making Past

Ben Jackson on BBC Radio Leicester

Available for over a year

Centuries of shoes are on show in a new exhibition at Newarke House Museum in Leicester. The footwear, including a pair made to celebrate Leicester City's 2016 Premier League title win go as far back as the 16th Century. Tofique Boudraa from the museum has been telling BBC Radio Leicester's Kevin Ncube the shoes have been collected as part of a nod to the city's shoe-making industrial past.
