Gothic shoes for sale

With the course of time shoes expanded their range of use from completely utilitarian items aimed to protect the feet from weather and injuries to positional goods. The means of decoration varied depending on time period and geography: moccasins embroidered and decorated with beads, Vikings turnshoes with burned ornaments, Gothic shoes with long toes and many others. But let’s have a closer look at the latter ones. First mentions of shoes with pointy long toes go back to the twelfth century, but mostly they gained widespread in the XIV-XV centuries. Nobilities used custom Gothic shoes to show their status in society – history carries examples of special regulations prescribing the length of the toe for each particular position. Sometimes the length of the forehead was so much through the roof that it required the laces to be used to ride herd on the toes while promenading through the extending garden at the family manor or dancing through the ballroom of the castle.
