S5 * Medieval turnshoes (Hard sole) £45Re-enactment Shoes
Economically priced historic footwear from Foxblade Trading
This quality range of boots and shoes are ideal for historic re-enactment, TV, film, theatre, LARP or just because you want some thing different.
The shoes and boots below are part hand and part machine made. This enables us to offer quality footwear at a reasonable cost. All designs have all been researched and are based either on contemporary examples or pictures. Only quality leather is used in both the uppers and soles of our footwear. All shoes and boots are made in handed pairs rather than straight lasted. We offer full sizes only. We are always increasing our range to offer more variety please let us know if you have any specific requirements.
If you are looking for bespoke completely hand made footwear, or leatherwork of any type please look at the main site www.foxblade.co.uk (please note this site is very basic and is due for a major update) or contact me by either phone or email, details are at the bottom of the page. Please note the new Facebook page details below.
Foxblade Trading is a registered supplier to: The National Trust, English Heritage, Historic Royal Palaces, The National Trust for Scotland, Warwick Castle I also supply many other museums, theatres, historic societies, re-enactment groups and TV and film companies.
You can find me at most Lace Wars events, Sealed Knot musters and many medieval festivals. I can also visit your group at one of your events and bring a stock shoes with me, this is subject to the quantity required and my availability.
Latest news
Thanks to
all my customers both old and new who came to see us at the International Living History Fair at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground, Bath Lane, Bruntingthorpe, LE17 5QS. For more
information http://www.paste.org.uk/index-ilhf.html
It was of the best markets to
date and we have re-stocked most of our range
of shoes and boots below, plus buttons, buckles, pouches, belts, cooking and eating
knives, water bottles, tin cups and plates, I also have in stock British Army Napoleonic period
cartridge bags, leather bound note books, and other re-enactment goods. If you can't see it that
doesn't mean I can't make it. I specialise in one off items.
I offer a try before you buy policy to ensure you get the right shoes/boots and the right fit. That means you tell me what you want and I'll post it out. If the footwear fits you pay the full invoiced amount, if not you only pay the outgoing postage and return the footwear. Although I will send footwear to almost any where in the world I can only offer this service to UK addresses.
I can now supply many of the shoes and boots below with rubber grip soles, these are ideal for costumed interpreters and site guides. Please contact me by email (hit the Foxblade logo at the bottom of the page or email me shoes@fsmail.net) for a quotation or to discuss your requirements.
Coming soon new buckles and a new style of medieval boots.
I now have a Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/pages/Foxblade-Trading-and-Re-enactment-Shoes/126874654101903 Here I have all my hand made items with pictures and notes.
