OK Trekkers honest now what period footwear do ya wear ?
letshearitt
Carl Dyer center seams.
No, the nylon thread ain't correct. My feet don't know the difference and anyone studying my feet that closely has too much time on their hands.... ;D
(http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll124/Ladyofthewoods/IMGP2303-1.jpg) these half boots or a pair of center seam moccs I made. Got a new pair of shoe packs, we'll see about those in a few weeks. got some dyers, they make great skiis. just kiddin, actually I kinda forgot I had em.

Had a pair of Dyer's back tie mocs ... set a few records for down hill ski-un
Glad I outgrew em ...
Whatever you do ... do not look at Mongrel's feet
lol
Wouldn't mind some other footwear -- nothing wrong with the Dyer's and they're my go-to shoes for hunting (the stuff in books about being able to "ghost" through the woods, in moccasins -- true -- even being careful you can't be that quiet in anything with hard soles) -- but folks back in the day did have "normal" (like "store-bought'n") shoes if they could get them.... I like Zan's half-boots but they probably wouldn't fit me.... ;D
oh have I mentioned....Ranger makes mocasins and does leather work. Hes made my guillie brouges, and my mocasins....he might be taken orders... ;)

I wear center seams at most events. I have beeen wearing a pair of plain toe leather shoes, lately, because my feet get ta hurtin on the rocks sometimes. I have some lines shoe packs for the colder events and deer huntin.
well ranger, i built in a nice sandwiched pad set up inside mine, and used real thick hard leather for the bottums. worked real nice on them sharp little rocks
I wear straigh last shoes - but in the NW - where there are alot less stuff to stick ya - I wore centerseam and sideseam mocs
Shoe pack/Fort Ligonier mocs I made from oil-tanned leather. The bottoms have 2 thicknesses of saddle leather. Then I cheat a little and put some shoe goo on the bottoms for traction. With gel insoles, they rock!
