Hello, im the spanish maker of the caligae. I know that kind of hobnails are not correct but the caligae were made forthe march. I know the most of the time they walk by modern roads, were the conical hobnails work badly. So between the alternative to use nothing or flat headed nails, i have used the second to prolong life of the sole.
The pattern of hobnails is old, because the march were done in a III century bC context. The pattern of caligae itself its based in low caliga from Mainz, because is the older know. Probably at this time were more common to use calcei or perones, but the customer want caligae...
