Capt. Sterling Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Well for boots, hard to find a better price so for that fantasy look you really are getting quite a bargain.... and as far as the buckled shoes... you couldn't ask for something better for really foul weather or for getting newbies on the field quickly... one of our newbies wore a pair at a judged, juried event and NOT one expert noticed the difference. You have to be pretty much right on top of them to tell so until you can afford that really expensive pair, these are the perfect starter pair... I would certainly recommend them for folks wanting to get out and start playing right away... and kids... hell who wants to spend 100 dollars or more on a pair of shoes they will outgrow in two events??

Cheeky Actress Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 UPDATE: Just wore my 17th century shoes this past weekend for 11 hours. The condition of the ground was wet, hard packed in some areas and very muddy in others. As far as the comfort went, I had no problems! Note, As Mary Diamond did state, a shoe horn is needed to help get the shoes on. Overall...I am very happy with them!

Mary Diamond Posted November 15, 2007 Author Share Posted November 15, 2007 Good Afternoon, and Thank You for Your Interest! Presently, I do not have any shoes that are not spoken for. The first order has already been placed ~ I need a minimum of 5 pair per order, or a $10 fee applies per pair. Would there be 3 folk in need of buckle shoes or boots? If so, please do speak up, that Capt H and Blackbeard might get their shoes. YHS, Mary Oooh, shiny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Brand Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Projects and time have worked against me a bit and I find myself without shoes for PIP, so I shall need a pair. Â Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Diamond Posted November 16, 2007 Author Share Posted November 16, 2007 LAST CALL for PIP SHOES! I require all Last Minute Orders for PiP by Monday morning, November 19. PLEASE NOTE: I am honored by the Kind Patronage of the Pub, however, my Messenger is Full. Please contact me directly via e-mail for all Buckle Shoe and Leather Boot inquiries. YHS, Mary Oooh, shiny!

Mary Diamond Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 Good Morning! We are back from Pirates in Paradise, and I have a few shoe orders to send out today. I personally wore my brand new buckle shoes for 3 days, and am thrilled with them ~ they saved my toes! IN REVIEW: While there, shoes also went to Harry Smid, William Red Wake, and Mission. William noted that he absolutely required an insole for the shoes, there being a heel staple located under the manufacturers tag inside the shoe. Mission also required insoles. Neither Harry nor myself required insoles, and didn't have a problem with the staple, though we both felt a little something there. So, there you have it ~ each person will be a little different. People with existing foot concerns should count on needing an insole. For the Lurkers out there ~ Please note that ALL Men's Size Small & Medium are SOLD OUT. Earliest possible re-stock is June 2008. LIMITED QUANTITIES of Men's Large and Extra Large are still available. All sizes (6-12) Ladies Buckle Shoes are still available. I will be placing one last order for this year, so please place your orders with myself ASAP, via e-mail. Leather Boots are Backordered (Overseas Manufacturing & Customs delaying the process!), though they are scheduled to arrive this week (again). I apologize for the delay, and will ship as soon as they arrive to me. YHS, Mary Diamond Oooh, shiny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Brand Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 In review, the shoes looked wonderful. For a costume shoe of man made materials, you will probably do no better. The look for the money is perfect, and since shoes are always difficult to come by, I can recommend them as a first time shoe for those who cannot afford the more expensive alternatives. That said, get a cushioned insert. An insole is a must. You don't want to find out at the end of a very long day that you needed one. Just get one. That's an order.

Blackbead Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Ahoy there, lasses and lads! I bought me a pair of these here fine shoes and I did NOT need an insert! I wore them at a Christmas show that I did at my wife's place of work. I was on me feet all day long and they felt fine! THey look narrow at first but I be thinking that is a mirage (optical illusion) brought on by how high the tongue sits. THey are NOT buckled shoes but they look lik a pair. THe "buckle" on one of mine popped off in shipment but was easy as pie to repair. Suffice it to say that I'm an objective buyer and that I am very happy with these shoes for the price. THey ain't the real thing but from a distance they look good and they fit me as well as the shoes I wear to work everyday!! I be one happy shoe-wearing buccaneer!
