I ordered the shoes for my first medieval outfit. Eigendlich it should indeed leather shoes but unfortunately I took the material in the article text is not really true and therefore true bit skeptical and almost disappointed. Now I wear the shoes during a festival for three days and has or can say this purchase was worth it. The first impression, they are sturdy and comfortable. Despite moisture from the outside, his feet remained dry. The closure is initially a bit strange but with some practice soon also not a real problem. I do not regret the purchase in the aftermath and would order these shoes again.
