Roman boots early 3rd century
#7
Paul, I was also pretty confused by the round hobnails around the edge. I don't think they were intended to imitate the usual wear and tear - do they have ANY function at all, or was making the shoe easier with the outermost nails flat ? (less chaos while stitching?)<br>
<br>
Aitor, the eyelet shoes on your pic look great, but I would prefer Carol's boot, since it is more closed, and I'm sitting here right at the Danube border (ok, it's about 4 km - ALMOST at the Danube), and weather conditions here can be quite cold and damp.<br>
<br>
My adress is: [email protected] <br>
<br>
All kinds of sketches, plans, pics and additional information on these (or similar) boots will receive a warm welcome !<br>
<br>
Or could anybody give me Carol's email adress ?<br>
