    Custom Kilt shoes for all occasions

    For those that are interested Tom Mattermore with Civil War Boot makes custom shoes of every kind and style and even though they are not on his site, custom brogues to go along with ones modern kilt! I know there is always a problem finding good footwear especially well made and comfortable.

    I have a very wide foot (size EEE) and every pair of boots for every reenacting era I do I have purchased from Tom have been sheer comfort and you cannot beat their quality and authenticity. But Tom does not just do historical shoes.

    You really cant beat his prices for his quality.

    Nice looking shoes.

    We have a member, DWFII, who is a cobbler. I would like to hear his thoughts on some of the styles.

    Calling DW a cobbler is like calling DaVinci a house painter

    Glad to hear of the comfort factor. Years ago I ordered some replica cavalry knee boots from Cavalry Regimental Supply. They were soooo authentic (hobnails) that they were too painful to walk in no matter how many different foot pads I tried.

    Thanks for this link.
