Hi Robert,
No, I don't think so, but if you have access to a university library it shouldn't be too hard to find.
But those are all stated to be made after the finds from Welzheim (although somewhat liberally, when compared with the drawings of the catalog (Driel-Murray, C. van: Das Ostkastell von Welzheim, Rems-Murr-Kreis. Die römischen Lederfunde. Stuttgart: 1998) - the carbatinae recons all have soles for example). Actually, the top right shoe I can't even find among the closed, nailed shoes in the catalog ... maybe it's the same pattern as the one below, but that is a carbatina according to the catalog, without any trace of an extra sole.
Quote:No, really wish I did, though. Has it ever been reprinted?

Quote:Do not have the pictures here now, but that boot is also shown in "Römische Schuhe, luxus an den Füsen" page 10 upper right.
