Great Feets of Valor

[helblonde]

The war was dusty, windy, dry, and cold at night. We also had laughter, alcohol, green grass, shopping, and flipples, so it was a good war.

Despite my shopping prizes, I have failed in my one shopping goal for the year: I did not buy any period shoes. I can't believe I haven't run into a period shoe merchant all year. Does anyone have any online suggestions? Folks you would or wouldn't buy from?

I have a pair of their short boots (ankle high). I wore them to a March Crown where it rained so hard there were standing puddles everywhere, and my feet didn't get wet.

That I will be wearing at Coronet (we're day-tripping, but should be there on Saturday).

I have a pair of off-the-rack turnshoes from Historic Enterprises that have held up very well over several seasons of regular wear.

I have heard good things about Dru Shoemaker. If I remember correctly, I believe he merchants with Gaukler at Estrella.

Cathyn's got several pairs from this merchant: http://www.ladyorensmedievalshoes.com/
In addition to being good shoes they're surprisingly inexpensive. Check 'em out!
