I'm wondering if their product is worth the prices they charge. From the pictures they seem like some amazing stuff but there is little to no reviews on their site.

I have not personally bought from them yet, but I know that some in the Roman reenacting community have. As far as the quality for the price, I think it depends on the specific piece. For example, their celtic spindle boss shields are historically accurate and look like higher quality than other vendors. Other items are less than stellar. It just depends on the specific item that you are looking for. I have not found a one stop shop anywhere yet for the best quality across all items.
agreed.....I'm just highly interested in their boots, which LOOK great in the pictures. But for the 500 price tag, I'm a little wary. There are no reviews that I can find on their product and there's a slight language barrier between my emails with them. They seem to be almost confused or in shock that I'm wanting to know more information on their boots, lol.
so far I've found that their all leather, synthetic sole, no steel shank, custom made....and the picture makes them look pretty hardcore....
Maybe I'll just bite the bullet.......
I am unsure on that one. There are a lot of custom makers in the US though that might be able to do the same thing authentically and cheaper. Which ones are you looking at specifically?
the low buckle musketeer boots......really love the look.
I currently wear the CAboots chocolate jack sparrows but I needed something a little more hardcore and maybe a bit more period looking....
I know son of sandler makes some great boots but I'm not sure how I feel about their very pointed toe....I'm more of a square toe kinda guy. I love everything about the look of these boots in the wulflund pics...

That may be worth it then. I have also looked for a similiar boot for my pirate look. I originally ordered a pair from Ravenswood Leather because of the same thing. They had a squared toe, no buckles up the side, a tight fitting bucket, etc. I waited for months, only to keep being told next month. I finally cancelled the order. Good luck. If you get them, post what you think about them. I might be in the market real soon for something similiar.
