	Yes... I may wind up going with those even though they are not very historically accurate.  In part that's because these fit in well with what the rest of the  "Scots"  in my guild and the other guilds are wearing, and in part because they're affordable.  I like the "boots" they make and think they'd look smashing on some pretty young things legs, but I can only stray so far from historical accuracy without twitching, and those make me twitch.

 $75 for a handmade shoe that's authentic to the late Tudor period is pretty darned reasonable.
