Boots?

Post by IrishFett »

Hey I know there is a link in the "Master where to find list" for boots, but when I click on it I get an error. So here is another link to Garnet suede boots form the same site. Are these the ones that are suggusted and favored to be accurate for a Royal Guard?

Cheers!

The only difference is those where Just above the ankle boot. yeah That's correct when getting sizes you need to go up two sizes. I went a head and got size 13 cause of the pointed ends. You and I both wear the same size boot.

I have a pair of these, and they look great! I'm in the process of treating them with a leather protectant/weather proofer/water preventer soaker inner spray. I can see how if they are not taken care of that they could easily fade to a much lighter shade.

I went to this site and the books took sweet. but they don't have my size. i take an 11 so the conversion will be a womans 13 right? but also i was wondering if superman boots will be acceptable such as this e-bay site http://cgi.ebay.com/SuperHero-Superman- ... 7C294%3A50 . I tried andrew's suade boots on the last troop that we had. they looked good but i have a wide foot and they were a bit tight width wise. to make a long story short, will this boot be ok for those wide feet persons such as myself?

Superman boots are not accepted in the CRL.

Those boots would be a size 13 womens for you and yes they come in wide versions.

FYI -

I just visited with Steve Sansweet recently. We discussed the Royal Guard in detail and the boots. He tells me the original RG's wore almost a pink in color slippers. I took some detailed pics of his personal RG including pics under the robe. I will show them on another thread.

ok, then if sihouetts don't have the scrunch boots nor the ones advertised in my size at the begining of this topic, where do i turn for a reliable dealer of approved boots?

What do you guys think about these http://www.zappos.com/n/p/p/7465857/c/27924.html I am doing more searching on the internet since they don't have the size on the first link that I want.
