Help with dating Ferragamo shoes

    I found these Ferragamo women’s pumps at Goodwill. I think they may be from the 80s based on the label resources page, but I’m not 100% sure. Also, does anyone know the model name? They are dark brown, & may be some sort of animal skin. If these are a size 8, what does the 2A mean?

    Thank you so much, sorry for all the questions!

    That elongated squared off tapered toe and straight heel is c. 2000, and the 2A means double narrow.

    I was way off! Thank you for your help! Any idea on what materials it’s made out of or what model it is?

    I though the same dating-wise, when I saw them. The material to me looks like an embossed leather - not actually some exotic skin, just normal leather made to look like that.

    Yes, that's called 'boarded' leather - impressed to look like an exotic skin, but it's actually bovine leather.
