    Prices range from NOK 750-2500 ( GBP 85-280, USD 135-450) depending on style and quality, and whether the buckle should be pewter or silver. Silver is most common and most expensive. Gilded silver buckles are usually available from select goldsmiths.

    There must be a supplier in the US somewhere. Not sure about Britain or Europe, but you could get them from Norway via mail order. Try a google for "bunadsko", which is the shoes name, and know that "dame" and "kvinne" and "jente" are females. "Herre", "mann/menn" and "gutt(er)" are male.
