uppers Explanation: Według słownika. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 10 mins (2015-04-28 20:21:09 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Early boots consisted of separate leggings, soles, and uppers worn together to provide greater ankle protection than shoes[1] or sandals. Around 1000 BC, these components were more permanently joined to form a single unit that covered the feet and lower leg, often up to the knee. (...) Waterproof gumboots are made in different lengths of uppers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boot |
