FOOT

You know, kicking people's butts with round-edged boots is good, but with pointy shoes, it's even better.

Pauline Marois

Shoes in Middle ages were a clear status symbol and an important element of life along with clothing. Material, model, and tailoring quality of shoes could tell about its owner even more than clothing regardless of whether it’s casual renaissance shoes or medieval foot armor.

Medieval foot armor

Foot armor section contains our handcrafted sabatons collection. These medieval armor boots appeared at the beginning of XIV century and were a copy of fashionable at that time poulaine. Sabatons were made of metal strips riveted together, which usually covered only upper part of the foot. 

Historically, these boots were a part of cavalry armor considering they are not that comfortable to walk in. However, if you’re riding a horse – such medieval foot protection deserves the highest possible praise. On the other hand, in case you really need foot armour, but your stables are empty, our blacksmiths developed a stylish sabatons armor model that is adapted for fighting on feet - sabatons for modern fencing.

By the way, some historians don’t consider pointy versions of medieval pointed boots as sabatons but distinguish them as a separate kind – solleret. They copied civil shoe fashion so much that official restrictions on toe-cap’s length had to be made in France.

Nonetheless, we are ready to sell you extremely beautiful, extremely long-nosed, and extremely functional gothic sabatons without demanding any patent of nobility.

Anyway, when fashion for long-nosed shoes fell into oblivion, fashion for long-nosed sabatons followed the same track. Until the end of XVI century, the “bear paw” shoes type was everywhere. These are sabatons with wide nonpointed nose that needn’t be unfastened while dismounting and those are easy to walk in. Sabatons’ noses were occasionally more or less rounded, however, never pointed anymore. You can read other amusive stories about the harsh life of these battle boots in Sabatons section.

Anna Dello Russo
