Description

Medieval half boots laced brown dyed

Shoes of this type were worn by all classes throughout the late Middle Ages and even earlier.

Made using the nail-through method. Almost indistinguishable from a turn-stitched shoe, but much more stable in construction. The upper leather is very supple and extremely stable.

Finds of these medieval shoes can be found in many museums. Similar shoes were also found in earlier times. This type of shoe can also be found in the work “Shoes and Patterns” by Francis Grew and Margarethe de Neergaard, where it is dated to 1100-1450.

Details Medieval half boots laced brown dyed:
Upper leather thickness: approximately 2.5mm
outsole leather thickness: min. 5mm
Upper material: leather
insole: leather
outsole: leather

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

We color the shoes with oil dye on an alcohol base which is a very good solution for a medieval look. Most offered shoes in this price category are painted with colors on acryl base which is a covering color. But medieval coloring meant that the color soaks into the leather and you still see the natural surface texture afterwards. Even if our color has synthetic paint pigments, it exactly does that. It soaks into the leather and gives you this beautiful look as shown in the pictures. Every pair of shoes is unique due to the fact that the pores in the leather soak differently.

Regarding size:
If you wear the shoes with an inlay sole and thick socks, you can choose just your foot size and it should fit. If you don't use inlay soles or thick socks, then please take them a size smaller so they won't be too big.
