Cow mouth shoes Renaissance shoes 16th Century dark brown

These dark brown colored cow-mouth shoes are good for Renaissance representation. Made of genuine cowhide, the cow-mouth shoes are not only sturdy and robust, but also very comfortable at the same time.

The outsole was made of 2 leather soles on top of each other. This prevents the shoe from wearing out unnecessarily quickly. Inside the shoe is lined with fine goatskin. In addition, the shoe has an inner sole also made of goatskin. The sewn-on strap is used for fastening to the foot and was equipped with a plain buckle. The strap is perforated and can thus be individually adjusted to the foot.

Temporally, the cow-mouth shoes can be attributed to the 15th to the end of the 16th century. Another name of the shoes is ox-mouth shoes, but they differ only in the name. Finds of these shoes can be found in many museums. Shoe finds of this type exist from about 1480 AD.

For dyeing:
The offered shoe is dyed by hand with alcohol-based oil paint and then sealed.

Most often shoes in this price segment are made with leather treated with acrylic-based paint. Since acrylic paint is an opaque paint, the dyeing process virtually applies a paper-thin layer of plastic paint to the leather. This looks very even, but has very little to do with the dyeing methods used in the Middle Ages or natural, original leather grain of the upper leather.

In the Middle Ages, vegetable dyeing slurry was used to dye the leather.
The principle of these dyeing processes is, as with the oil paint we use, that the color is absorbed and not applied opaquely as with acrylic. For this reason, our dyeing - although produced with color pigments of synthetic origin - resembles much more a "medieval dyeing" than modern prepared leather from the tannery.

Our dyeing method gives the shoe a character in antique look, because the pores of the natural material leather are different and the color is absorbed accordingly also differently in some places. Thus, each shoe is unique.
