Appropriate Footwear

[Glamrockdj]

Here's a photo of a "21st century" Jacobite shoe--a shoe that is contemporary in fit and construction but that is modeled off mid 18th century footwear. If recall correctly, I have seen several painting of highlanders from that era and almost to a man they are wearing something similar.

That's a fantastic looking shoe but I don't think I'd be marching into battle with them on, I recall seeing some drawings of a Jacobite who was found in a bog and was quite well preserved and that's where the brogan type boot came from, I'll need to look for it as it had diagrams etc, some photos too.

I'd wear that shoe for a more dressier occasion, very nice.
