Vibram Soled 14th Century and Viking Shoes In Stock

VikingLeather · Post by **VikingLeather** » Thu Nov 18, 2010 6:31 pm

We just received our order of shoes with the vibram soles. We have the 14th Century shoes in Natural, Dark Brown and Black with vibram soles in the Laced Version. We are stocking the Dark Brown and Black with nice period buckles. We also have the Viking style 2 toggles in stock with Vibram in Natural and Dark Brown with the vibram soles. We are working to get all the shoes on the site.

We are limited in numbers since we bought several different styles this time, so get your order in early. If the pic shows on the site, they are in stock.

We will have the regular soled 14th Century boots in stock in about a week. Same colors as the vibram soled versions.

Thanks

Awesome stuff as I have been eyeing your boots for a while. First off do you have any pics of viking boots with the vibram soles?

Secondly do you have any (dont mind on the colour) with soles in a UK size 11 US size 12? If not dont worry I can wait a little bit, but any idea of price?

VikingLeather · Post by **VikingLeather** » Thu Nov 18, 2010 8:53 pm

Thanks. Yep, we have the vibram soled Viking 2 toggle shoes in Natural and Dark Brown with the vibram soles. You can dye them up to your own color choice if you want. I will put the pics on either tonight or in the morning.

Just ordered a pair of the laced 14th C boots with V sole in black. YAY!

How are the sizes for wide feet? Are they a special order? I ordered a pair of Jorvik boots from Bohemond. Good quality, but too narrow for my foot...

VikingLeather · Post by **VikingLeather** » Fri Nov 19, 2010 9:23 am

The nailed type 14C and Viking boots will accomodate a single E width fine. On the wider feet, I am having Westland fab up a wider shoe for an Archiver. Once I have them in hand and have his feedback, we can proceed with the orders. And, yes they would have to be special order, but I am ordering fairly regularly.

I would like a natural colour pair please, would a US size 12 fit a UK size 11 ok?

Since they would be a special order, what are required i.e. a trace of my foot? Or are you going by the standard wide shoe size? What would be the price for your Jorvik two toggle in a 11W?

VikingLeather · Post by **VikingLeather** » Fri Nov 19, 2010 11:29 am

If you just wear an 11W, you should try these I have in stock. I wear a 13W and the 13s fit me fine. That is unless you are thinking of installing an insole or something.

As for price, I don't think there will be an upcharge, I will have to see what he charges me.

PM me and let's see if you want to try a pair of the regulars I have. The shoes I have on order are EEE sized.

Thanks for the orders folks. We still have hundreds of pairs of shoes in stock. Don't wait too long if you have been on the fence about making a purchase. Christmas is almost here.

We will have another shipment sometime around the first of next week with new 14th Century boots and other goodies to try out.

Thinking about carrying the Arming Coats and Viking Tunics. Any interest?

I messaged you a while back but I would like to state my query again here: can those of us who ordered shoes order standalone vibram soles for ours so that we can attach them?

Rodney · Post by **Rodney** » Wed Nov 24, 2010 1:04 pm

The shoes arrived today!

The ladies in my office are very excited about my new menâ€™s pointy shoes. The 14th century buckled shoes with vibram soles are exactly as advertised and a heck of a bargain in my mind.

The order was finalized on the weekend, shipped Monday and arrived Wednesday. Thatâ€™s lightening speed folks. Communication with Frank via PM and email was prompt, courteous and helpful.

Using the rating scale common to AA:
Communication: 5, Excellent through multiple media.
Shipping: 5, USPS, Great speed and no damage in transit.
Construction: 4.95, One tiny area (approx. 1cm) of the sole was not stained black where it joins with the upper. I fixed it with a sharpie marker in 10 seconds.
Price: 5, Very good value for the dollar.

I will recommend Viking Leathercrafts to everyone I know.

I just got mine in today as well, and I couldn't be happier. Fast delivery, they look great, are comfortable, and fit well.

A+!

Im just counting the quarters and il be placing my order by Friday.

Got the shoes! Very fast shipping, (should have posted this 2 days ago!) and as usual exactly what was advertised and ordered!

All orders entered this past weekend, Thanksgiving through Sunday will be shipped out tomorrow. Couldn't get to the post office with all the festivities for all of the orders. We are still stocked heavily with shoes and expect our next order of 14th Century Laced and Buckled regular soled shoes any day.

Thanks

Frank

Holy impulse buy batman! From reading the link to checkout in under five minutes

VikingLeather · Post by **VikingLeather** » Thu Dec 02, 2010 6:02 pm

That's what I said!! Thanks for the order, they will go out in tomorrow's mail.

Still plenty of stock for most of the sizes, restocking on the one's we are out of in a week or so.

The other box of regular soled shoes is headed this way.

Urban · Post by **Urban** » Thu Dec 02, 2010 8:39 pm

Great! Can't wait to try them out. I used to fight in those museum replica's knee high moccasin boots, with just a flimsy thin sole, in retrospect I'm amazed I never injured myself with those. It will be be nice to look the part and have good support.

VikingLeather · Post by **VikingLeather** » Sat Dec 04, 2010 1:56 pm

And that is why I am offering them at lower rates. One thing I never had was period shoes in the SCA. I am trying to make the more accessable for everyone that wants them.

Urban · Post by **Urban** » Tue Dec 07, 2010 12:39 am

My shoes were waiting at the door when I got home from work today. Excellent build quality, the vibram soles are bitchin', very comfy to wear, and walk around in. Great price and prompt delivery. I give a 5/5 on the Frieman scale.

Aldwyn of Lancashire · Tue Dec 07, 2010 1:05 pm

I received my 14th C. laced shoes w/ Vibram soles in late Nov., and they are great. Nice and comfy, well made.

I've bought stuff from Frank in the past (belts, leather for projects) and have found Frank to be great in communication and helpful in ordering. 5 Stars.

Thanks for the positive comments guys. It was a pleasure

Paid for my shoes on Sunday, and they were waiting for me when I got home from work tonight. (Thursday)

I have pretty high arches, but I put some orthopedic insoles(3/4 length) inside anyway before putting my stocking feet inside. There was room. 11.5EE feet in size 12 shoe works fine (14thC buckled shoe).

They are pretty comfy, and I'm wearing them for the 1.5hrs before I go to bed (got off work after 9, and back at 5am).

VikingLeather · Post by **VikingLeather** » Fri Dec 10, 2010 5:05 pm

Great! How about the length, is there too much in the toes or at the heel? Glad you like them.

14th Century shoes

I wear a size 9 1/2 in most shoes.Should I go up or down for the nearest whole size?

better yet did I just miss the 1/2 sizes?

VikingLeather · Post by **VikingLeather** » Sat Dec 11, 2010 11:00 pm

We are only stocking the shoes in whole sizes. If you wear a solid 9 1/2, go with the 10. Especially if you are going to install an insole, it will make them nice and comfy.

If you need extra support or are going to fight in them, go with the vibram option. If not, the nailed soles are very nice as well.

Thanks
