I'm considering buying one, two, or all of these:

Buttoned boots (textile)

for 18th c stuff? (textile)


Buttoned shoes. (synthetic leather)

Probably not these or these, but they're cool. (both leather)


I like these (leather)a lot too, but I don't really picture myself in knee high boots.


They're all from DinSko, a swedish shoe chain and none of them are really expensive. But I couldn't get all of course, but maybe two pairs, OR the high boots. The problem is that those I like most are not made of leather and I prefer leather shoes.


Later I ended up just buying the buttoned boots. The buttoned shoes very lovely, but too large for me, I have broad, but thin feet, so I could easily get in them without unbuttoning them and my feet move around. I didn't like the finish of the second shoes and I decided that I didn't need the lovely open-and-laced leather shoes, since the heel was rather too high for everyday use. But the boots were even prettier in person.

If the second pair would be OK for 18th century, I might have a look at them. Is it ok to have shoes without a tongue?
My friend bought some red ones that looked a bit like those, but with lower heels (they also came in black, you must have seen them) for 18th century inspired costumes.

Did you know that Din Sko is about the only shop that has lower prices in NOK than SEK? Indiska is a lot more expensive in Norway, for example.

I think there should be a tongue, but for a period I don't do that much I'm not as picky as for medieval and renaissance.

It should be fairly easy to install a tongue, oneself, actually. A sort of modesty panel for the foot. A "toeacher" :)

It just seems that in this last six months, Din Sko has come out with SO many lovely pairs of shoes, I don't even dare walk by there anymore.

Yeah, I know. And all other shoe chains only has okay-ish shoes, I wonder what this is all about?

Yes, I have bought a lot of shoes this year, very unlike me, and lots of them in Din Sko.

I saw the very best shoes in Gothenburgh in summer, but that was not in Din Sko. Very 18th c, with the right heel and a "bunad" buckle. I would have bought them if they had fitted my feet.

That third pair, buttoned shoes, are really nice. I like them. Maybe I should swing by and see what they have on offer here in town...

All the first three as they are cool *and* have great costume-use potential, so win on two counts.

You can always put a inner sole in the boots to make them fit better.
Jag har oxå breda fötter, det finns ett jättebra inlägg med stöd för hålfoten som även har en pilotte dvs en kudde som ger stöd precis framför trampdynan om du förstår vad jag menar.

Jag har nästan alltid mina specialinlägg, gjutna efter mina fötter. Reumatismen har krökt mina tår, vilket gör att framfoten faller ihop, men såna kan man inte ha i vanliga skor. Så därför växlar jag mellan "jättebra skorna" från "Bekväma skor "och sexiga skor med klack. Och faktum är att jag brukar få ungefär lika ont från dem. Jag antar att sättet man går i skor me dklack också gör att framfoten inte faller nerpå samma sätt (utan ett helt annat)

Oh wow - beautiful footwear!!!

I clicked your first picture link, then checked out their site and drooled. Then I clicked your other links and you picked all the same shoes/boots that I liked too :)

I wish I could get some of those over here.
