[app. related in some way to prec. or to F. pincer to pinch: cf. OF. pinchon (1423), F. pinçon toe-piece of a horse-shoe, f. pince toe of a hoof.]
A thin shoe of some kind; a slipper or pump.
The pinsons appear to have become obsolete soon after 1600. No contemporary description of them is known: Kersey (Phillips) in 1706 suggested ‘a sort of shoe without heels’; Halliwell has ‘thin-soled shoes’; Way Promp. Parv. (note) suggests ‘possibly, high and unsoled shoes of thin leather, worn with pattens’.
