Questions about the product Heimdall Viking Shoe: Authentic Half Shoe, Brown

Wird geladen...

The sole of the Heimdall Viking shoe is made of vegetable-tanned, natural cowhide, which is securely fastened using the through-nailing method. Historically, this type of shoe is documented for the period from 700 to 1200 AD, with finds from Haithabu, among other places, serving as models.

What type of closure is used on the Heimdall Viking shoe, and which archaeological site is the design based on?

The Heimdall Viking shoe is fastened with two leather toggle buttons that are crossed over the instep. The shoe's design is based on historical finds from the period between 700 and 1200 AD, such as those discovered in Haithabu.

How should the upper leather of the Heimdall Viking shoe be cared for to keep it supple, and is the shoe suitable for the use of insoles?

The upper leather of the Heimdall Viking shoe should be regularly treated with leather grease or leather balm to keep it supple and water-repellent. As it is a historical half-shoe made of cowhide, insoles can be used if needed to increase comfort.

How thick is the upper and sole leather of the Heimdall Viking shoe, and what recommendations are there for wearing it on modern surfaces such as asphalt?

The upper leather of the Heimdall Viking shoe is approximately 2 mm thick, while the sole leather is approximately 3 to 6 mm thick. Since the shoes are very sensitive to modern surfaces such as asphalt, concrete, or gravel, wearing wooden overshoes or having them fitted with rubber soles by a cobbler is recommended.
