    I am not sure of the era of when this shoe was woven or if it Native American or not. If you possibly could help me find some more information on this interesting find.

      No, not Native American. A contemporary export from China. They are decorative, not functional shoes. Every one I've seen is the same size.

      Illustrated on page 192 of Bryan Sentance's "Art of the Basket, Traditional Basketry from Around the World" if you'd like a reference.
