Medieval ankle boots Godfrey, black

Product description

These medieval ankle boots are based on originals worn all over medieval Europe during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. Ankle boots provided extra support to the foot and ankles, making them a popular choice of footwear. Shoes were very expensive during the Middle Ages and had to last for years. People mended them, handed them down among family members, and paired them with wooden pattens to protect against wear and tear. Pattens also came in handy for walking through the dirty city streets. These ankle boots feature beautiful historic brass buckles. Fasten the shoes with three adjustable leather straps to dial in your fit. Made from high-quality vegetable-tanned brown leather, the ankle boots wear well over time. The rubber sole helps the footwear last longer and prevents slipping on wet or slippery surfaces like grass. Rubber also performs better on modern surfaces such as concrete and asphalt than traditional leather soles. These ankle boots are a great-looking, durable addition to your medieval reenactment or LARP costume.
