What is it about historical handmade shoes that makes you feel transported to another time? Shoes are the direct connection between us and the Earth. We spend most of our waking hours walking in shoes. Custom fit leather shoes mold to your feet over time, and feel like a second skin, moreso than any other article of clothing. We have a very intimate relationship with our shoes, so it's no wonder that it's such an important part of connecting to our past through clothing. What do you think - are shoes an integral part of your garb kit? •✨• These past few days have been filled with handsewing a pair of Raven Jórvík style Turnshoes for a customer. I just have a few finishing touches to make on them, so for now enjoy these throwback pictures of my very first pair of Jórvík boots. Also shown are my Celtic Hallstatt-style Iron Age shoes, for those who want the experience of wearing historical shoes, but have a tighter budget. Both products are tagged. •✨• #vikingshoes #norserunes #norsewitch #turnshoes #forestwitch #forestspirit #handmadeshoes #handmade #historicalshoes #etsy #turnshoes #paganwitch #paganwoman #vikingclothing #vikings #vikingreenactment #vikingsofinstagram #pagan #heathenry #heathens #rennfaire #garb #larpcostume #larp #shieldmaiden #vikingwarrior #leathercraft #leatherwork #leathershoes #leatherboots https://www.instagram.com/p/BvjzwCGn4HE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1kzcbnzh6yshp
