What are you wearing on your feet?

[Bonny Pearl]

I purchased belly dance sandals last year since I have incorporated that mode of dress into my garb collection.  They are VERY comfortable as the sole has a fair amount of cushion to them for being sandals.  There is also some grip to the sole so you won't slip.  Plus there is a nice variety of colors to choose from.  The prices are great!  Remember to criss cross the laces twice each time you come to your shin/front when lacing up and the laces will hold up all day.

So when getting boots resoled....is it possible to get them resized as well? Is that an option?

I was unaware that boot sizings are different then shoe sizing....so my well worn pirate boots are actually half a size too big (probably the reason my feet kill me after an hour or two). I'd rather pay to have them resoled and sized (if thats possible) then order a whole new pair of boots

Try putting a memory foam insole in them.

Leather can be stretched when it's a bit tight, but not really taken in.  Doing that would entail taking the boot to bits, at which point you might as well buy a new pair.

I could DEFINITELY see these as ren shoes by adding a buckle:

And these would need to be cut away so that there is just one eyelet, and possibly enlarge the area btwn the tongue and eyelet to be more teardrop shaped:

I am excited to try out the new boots at Heart and Soles this year!  Black or brown fold over style piratey boots.  Huzzah!  Maybe Nikki will post a picture of them.

When I get home, I'm at work now and don't have the photos available here...

As a proud owner of a pair of those pirate boots, I love them!  I can hardly wait for MNRF to wear AND sell them!

[Lady Nicolette]

Pirate boots...We only made this one pair with the Celtic cross, the ones we'll have at MN are black and brown.

[Lady Renee Buchanan]

Could you also please post a picture of the Mary Janes?  I have a friend who wants to buy a pair when she comes  to MN this fall.  Thanks.

Left to right on top:  Ladie's Ghillies, Men's Wanderer Sandal and Men's Ghillie
Middle:  All are Ladie's "Quests," similar to a Lady Jane.  We also have the slash cuts and the green man face shoes (shown in dark brown over tan) in men's sizes.
Bottom:  More Quests, with a black Ladie's "Nazareth" sandal on the end.
We will also have true Mary Janes available again, I just don't have any photos of the new ones yet.

[Marietta Graziella]

I recognize those shoes!!!     Can't wait to get to work!!

"Get your leather shoes, faire special only... ON A STICK!  Yes, right here!"   

[Kate XXXXXX]

With ketchup?   

They look great.  I have VERY wide feet (wide at the toe, narrow at the heels: duck's feet!) and always have trouble finding good shoes.  I'm having a real job finding some 18th C ladies shoes at an affordable price here in the UK.

[Lady Renee Buchanan]

Thanks, Nickie.  Love.  Love.  Love my shoes.  Now I want the Quests.  Have to save up!

My friend will be so excited!

Wait til the TSA guys get a load of these at the airport. 

No way these go in checked baggage.

Angus, the few times we've flown with garb, the boots and hats are in the carryons and in our possession at all times LOL! I'm waiting for one of them to be so confused at what they see but so far they appear to not be concerned.
