Questions about the product Medieval buckle shoes, brown

Wird geladen...

The soles of these shoes are made of approximately 7 mm thick smooth leather (cowhide). They date back to the Late Middle Ages (approximately 1250 to 1500 AD).

What fastening method is used on these medieval shoes and how does it affect ankle stability compared to other models?

These medieval shoes use brass buckles as a fastening method, allowing for individual adjustment to the foot. Compared to simple slip-on shoes, this ankle-high shaft offers significantly greater ankle stability thanks to the secure buckle fastening, ensuring a firm fit for historical reenactments or on rough terrain.

What manufacturing techniques were used for these shoes, and for which social classes or roles in the Middle Ages is this specific type of shoe historically documented?

Medieval buckled shoes were handcrafted, with historical models often made using through-stitching or turn-sewn construction. This specific type of shoe with brass buckles is documented from approximately 1250 to 1500 (High to Late Middle Ages) and was worn by various social classes, including commoners, peasants, craftsmen and merchants, as well as wealthy citizens.

What specific care measures are recommended for the leather of these buckled shoes, and why is special care required when using them on modern hard surfaces such as asphalt?

For the care of medieval leather buckle shoes, regular treatment with leather grease (e.g., with beeswax) or leather balm is recommended to keep the material supple and protect it from drying out and moisture. Before application, remove any coarse dirt with a soft brush or a damp cloth. Take special care on hard surfaces such as asphalt, as the often historically authentic leather soles or soft sole constructions are subject to extremely high abrasion on such surfaces and wear out significantly faster than on natural ground.
