Product description
This pair of boots is inspired by late medieval models and made from light brown cowhide. Similar examples have been uncovered during archaeological excavations, including in Constance. The shaft above the buckles can be worn either up or folded down, depending on your preferred style. The middle strap, like the others, is fitted with a historically inspired buckle and wraps around the ankle for a secure fit. The sole and flat heel are attached with nails, providing excellent stability and durability. With proper care, these shoes will last a long time, even with frequent use. Please note: modern surfaces like asphalt and gravel are not suitable for historical leather soles, as they wear down quickly with prolonged use.

Maintenance & care
Just as with weaponry, you can care for your shoes and leatherware by applying a little Ballistol after cleaning. This prevents the leather from drying out.
When packaging this item, we exclusively use 100% recycled plastic and recycled paper/cardboard from FSC certified forests. We reuse a large part of the material directly without the intervention of a recycling process.
Recycle the material by separating your waste:
1. Cardboard: separate or reuse your paper.
2. Plastic cushions, clothing bags and plastic tape: separate or reuse your plastic. If possible, pierce the cushions with a volume reduction needle.
3. Paper packaging for jewelry and small items: these have a plastic inner layer. Remove these, then separate your paper and plastic.
