hurricane Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Type in "pirate boots" on ebay.com - there are many price ranges. Also, type in "thing high boots" and many times Bob and Angie have men's boots that are good and not too expensive. The other option is to buy a pair of Wellington style boots and add your own cuffs. I have a pair like that that I've had 20 years now... -- Hurricane ______________________________________________________________________ http://piratesofthecoast.com/images/pyracy-logo1.jpg Captain of The Pyrates of the Coast Author of "Memoirs of a Buccaneer: 30 Year Before the Mast" (Published in Fall 2011) Scurrilous Rogue Stirrer of Pots Fomenter of Mutiny Bon Vivant & Roustabout Part-time Carnival Barker Certified Ex-Wife Collector Experienced Drinking Companion "I was screwed.

Yer help is much appreciated! Guybrush Pardon if ye have these links already, but I was look'n for boots not too long ago. I happened to find an awesome deal on ebay - thigh high all leather flat soled boots with lacing all the way up and a panel inside for $26, but seller is done - someone bought the rest off him, no doubt to sell themselves. Here ye be: http://www.baldmountain.net/ http://www.catskill-moc.com http://www.nativearth.net/bootpage.html - beautiful http://www.houseofandar.com - there have been some of these on ebay http://www.sonofsandlar.com/ http://www.armlann.com/ http://www.medievalcollectibles.com/Search...?CategoryID=125 http://store.yahoo.com/ladyorensmedievalsh...hoes/boots.html http://www.imperialweapons.com/costumes/MA...MAIDMarion.html http://www.renboots.com/ http://www.renaissancemoccasins.com/ http://www.sodhoppers.com/ - unique http://www.therealmsfinest.com/Merchant2/m...ategory_Code=FW Hopin' this helped.

Gentleman of Fortune Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 I would say that it depends on from what period you want your pirate image to portray. One of the the best bootmaker for 17th and 18th century is Sarah Juniper out of the UK 17th C boots should look like this Pricey but none better (IMHO) Come aboard my pirate re-enacting site http://www.gentlemenoffortune.com/ Where you will find lots of information on building your authentic Pirate Impression!

"Broadside" Long Posted August 21, 2004 Share Posted August 21, 2004 Mate, Ye can also try SCA Boots if ye need something inexpensive. I heard good things about 'em and they're runnin' a special now.

Blind Rhoid Pyle Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Be careful; not all boots are created equal! I ordered expensive bucket boots, and when they came they were hard to get on and also hurt my feet. I took them to a cobbler who laughed and said they weren't walking boots, but riding boots! Renboots fixed me up with a pair of boots that look good, fit, and were less than a third of the price of the others. Plus, they're comfortable!

Bilgemunky Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 If memory serves, Blind Rhoid is referring to his less-than-satisfying boots from Champion Attitude. Harbormaster has similar boots from the same company, and is very pleased. I decided to take a chance on them myself, and ended up somewhere in the middle - not quite thilled, but not entirely dissatisfied. My chief complaint is that the proportions were off, making the boots look more feminine than depicted in the picture. They also gave me the wrong toe and heel. After some negotiation I was able to get the heel replaced, which made a huge difference (the orignal heel they sent was too long and angular, and made the boots look less like a pirate and more like a stripper's thigh-high.) I'll be writing a full review on bilgemunky.com after I've had the chance to break them in a while, but I'd caution you that Champion Attitude doesn't have squat for a return policy. If you're looking to spend that kind of cash, I'd try RenBoots first. I don't know how their boots are, but they look good and they have a full refund available if you aren't happy.

Blind Rhoid Pyle Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 If memory serves, Blind Rhoid is referring to his less-than-satisfying boots from Champion Attitude. Aye, Bilgemunky. Good memory. RenBoots did me right, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
