caligae supplier
#1
Salvete,
Does anyone know of a good supplier of caligae?
I can only find the Deepeeka ones and I'm very confused as to their sizing.Some dealers sell them in normal shoe sizes and some say Deepeeka uses inches,i.e. size 10 is actually 10inches long which is not a shoe size 10 here,but more 8 1/2 or 9.
I tried to contact Williamson(?) using the e-mail on LegioXX 2 months ago and no response.
The Deepeeka ones look like they could be modified( made thinner) with a little effort.
Any suggestions??
(no,Ummos says he's not retailing them,but I wish he were.)
Thanks. Smile

Thanks,Jef.
I guess I always considered Matt L more of an armorer.
Great suggestion,though.
He's currently making some pugio frogs for me so I'd better
see if he has time for caligae.
