What are side-spring shoes?

I am reading about Polly Nichols, and she was reported as having been wearing "side-spring shoes" or "spring-side boots." Does anyone know what these were? Thanks.

Boots with elastic sidings.

Why a four-year-old child could understand this report! Run out and find me a four-year-old child, I can't make head or tail of it.
