Black Viking shoes with a simple toggle fastener
Flaw: left shoe size 43, right shoe size 42
During the early Middle Ages, toggle fasteners were widely used on shoes and boots and became a popular fastening technique of the era. These simple fasteners ensured that the shoes could be worn comfortably, securely and for a long time. The toggle fastener was particularly popular with the Vikings, as it was quick and easy to use. Finds of similar Viking shoes can still be seen in museums today.
Our Viking shoes with toggle fasteners are made from cowhide. They are equipped with a leather insole and have a robust leather outsole that is nailed to the shoe. The toggle fastener on the side allows the shoes to be adjusted to your own foot.
Details black Viking shoes with toggle fastening:
Upper: leather
cover sole: leather
Outsole: leather
Upper leather thickness: ca. 2 mm (0.08 inches)
Outsole thickness: ca. 5 mm (0.2 inches)
Color: black
Fitting: We recommend that you keep the shoes on for about 10-15 minutes while trying them on indoors (not outdoors). It is normal for the leather shoes to feel a little tight at first. After this short wearing time, the leather will soften a bit and the feeling will be more comfortable.
Shoe size: the shoes usually fit normal, so the usual street shoe size should fit. However, this information serves only as a recommendation, as various factors such as insoles, thick socks or a wide foot can play a role in this. If you have very wide feet, we recommend you to choose one size larger.
