Footwear

An important but often neglected aspect of one's overall kit is correct period footwear.

Through our suppliers - Lord of Battles, Medieworld, House of Warfare and Mythrojan, we can provide a vast range of different types of shoes and boots from ancient to pre-modern times each in the full ranges and sizes and most have at least two colour options as well.

Because of this it is impossible for us to keep even a basic range in stock. Although we sometimes have a few pairs of individual pairs in stock.

Instead we will order according to customer demand. Once we have enough orders to fill a box, we will pace an order and have it delivered by air freight.

To place an order for footwear, either select a pair from the samples shown below or from one of our supplier's websites and let us know the size and colour you want. Once we have enough interest to place an order, we will contact you to see if you still want to order. If you do, and your option is available, we will require a 50% non-refundable deposit with the balance owing once we receive the shipment.

The shoes and boots are part hand and part machine made. This enables our supplier to offer quality footwear at a reasonable cost. All designs have all been researched and are based either on contemporary examples or pictures. Only quality leather is used in both the uppers and soles of the footwear.

Note - These are all made to EU sizing:

Men's European (EU) to New Zealand generally convert by adding approximately 33 to the NZ/UK size (e.g., NZ 8 = EU 41-42). Common conversions include EU 40-41 (NZ 6.5–7), EU 42 (NZ 7.5-8), and EU 43-44 (NZ 9-9.5).

Women's European (EU) to New Zealand generally convert by adding 31 to the NZ size (e.g., NZ 6 = EU 37). Standard conversions typically map 35-36 to NZ 5, 37 to NZ 6-6.5, 38 to NZ 7, 39 to NZ 8, 40 to NZ 9, and 41-42 to NZ 10.
