The Armour Archive

VikingLeather

Some of the guys we sell to switch the ties from the side, to tie like modern shoes in the front. You have to pop a few extra holes in the leather. Fits under the greaves better. You mentioned buckles though didn't you. For the most part we carry shoes and boots for folks not armoring over them. Sti...

That is killer looking Pitbull. Really nice.

Thank you fellows. I do appreciate it.

Thorvald. I would like a pic of you with that belt on when you get a chance. I took pics of it sitting on my wall but it would be better to be seen on its wearer. It is really nice looking

Enjoy.

Got a transaction going on with him and he dissappeared on me. Anyone seen him?

Thank you for the orders folks. Shipping out as fast as we can to try to beat Santa. We still have full shelves of shoes and boots if you are in need, or need to nudge anyone to get them for you. I will promise Christmas Delivery if ordered by this coming Friday on adding rubber soles. I will ship i...

I will take the plain chest if it is still available. Would like to send via paypal if that is okay.

Apologies guys. I have had a web guy doing some behind the scenes stuff I didn't know about and zeroed out a lot of my inventory. :x Everything should be better, if not please contact me. I have been counting shoes until the wee hours of the morning. Sale extended for another week due to issues. Tha...

Scott,

Should have the 2 toggle reinforced version back on the shelves soon. If I don't have them before Christmas, I will extend the sale price to you for them after. I will try to remember to send you a note when I have them ready to go.

I was going to wait for Black Friday weekend, but thought I would go ahead and open up the store to the Archive members and our Facebook friends. At checkout, enter the code: vikingchristmas This will give a discount for all merchandise throughout the store. I have a few more odds and ends to place ...

Hello Randy,

At the moment, my jewelry folks don't craft in gold.

And Lloyd, you will always be my favorite jouster.

VikingLeather

Just a reminder, if you are going to be ordering footwear or other leather gear from us as Christmas gifts, please do so as soon as possible. Our current backlog for adding rubber to boots is about 2 weeks, and that creeps up as orders increase. We are adding lots of "modern gear" such as more moder...

Glad you like it. It turned out really nice. I didn't take a pic of it but would like to see it with the rest of your kit if you have the time to send one sometime.

VikingLeather

Hello Ashton, Sizes of most of the footwear is spot on with US sizes, although the US sizes are different from dress shoes to tennis shoes. The main differences on our end are the pointed toe, rounded toe varieties in the Viking boots. The viking calf boots tend to run a little larger due to the rou...

VikingLeather

I am trying to decide which way to go with adding leather strips for belts, straps, etc on the site. I don't want to do up a complete line like a leather company but do want to offer leather to the reenactment community to save them a little money. I offered these a few years back and want to see if...

VikingLeather

Thank you. I am glad your boots are serving you well. The lugged soles do let you get better wear from them. And when they wear down some they can be replaced.

VikingLeather

We normally try to cut these after a rain. I can put the rawhide in the yard and let it soften, but we haven't had any significant rain in months. I bought a kiddy pool so that I don't have to bring the rawhide into the house. We will be cutting more strips next week. I have a festival I am getting ...

Hello,

We were lucky enough to talk Ironbadger into making a few blades for us. These will be the last you see from him for a bit as his time is being drawn to other things. Each blade is around 6 1/4-6 1/2 long, with total lengths being around 10 1/2" Very hefty blades, these will last a lifetime. We only...

I purchased a shipment of drinking horns from Bryan Gibson ( sabakakrazny on the Archive) before his passing and have waited to sell them. One reason was that I really hated to sell such beautiful horns. These are some of the nicest he ever did for me. I do miss our conversations as he was a very co...

But I would have to go with the arbor press myself. You can purchase a cut down end punch that will fit in the hole in the bottom of the square steel press. Lots less work and uniform everytime.

I would suggest one of these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-RAWHIDE ... 4ae513755a

Get one of the 2 lb ones. The heads can be changed out, and turn them over once then replace.

Frank

Sent to you tonight Matt.

As long as they are in like new condition. Just be careful not to scuff them up with your greaves. But of course, anything I sell can be returned as long as it is in like new condition.

We have most sizes and colors in stock of our 2 toggle and 3 toggle reinforced heels for the fighters. Also a good selection if our popular viking calf boot.

I appreciate it folks. But due to the back surgery I fell way behind and disappointed my customers. I will try to make up for it this year. But truth of it is. It's a part time job for me. I just can't keep up with the demand. I think me limiting my customization options will help me to actually sto...

For the past few years as my business has grown, I have continued to offer customized work for off the shelf pricing. The nature of my leather business with all the customization options I offer, while making some very pretty and functional gear and accessories, also keeps me from being able to stoc...

I would like to apologize to the Archive in general for not being on the site very often as of late. I have been busy churning out older orders left over from the summer during my surgery. Since the surgery was not planned, I didn't turn off the items on the site, so the orders kept coming in. I hav...

Refunded Foxman. Again apologies that I couldn't get your order to you in a timely manner. As far as the questions about soles. I will be turning on the option for soles in a day or so. I am caught up with rubber soles at the moment, but am worn out. I will also be putting a kit on the site for thos...

Foxman has requested a refund and I will gladly send him a refund. I don't blame him it has been way too long. If you have sent an email, please resend.
