#FI110 (Early 18th Century) Colonial Buckle shoe $385.00
For those doing an impression of the first half of the 18th Century we offer the option of having the “counter” (the piece of leather put in the back of the heel of the shoe to stiffen the back) hand sewn with a “tunnel stitch” which is a row of stitching that only goes part of the way through the leather so stitching is not visible on the outside of the shoe. Please note this method of stitching virtually disappears early in the second quarter of the 18th Century.
Available in Black (Rough out)
Available in Size 7 through 12 and Half sizes 7 1/2 through 11 1/2
<Due to the extra work required please allow 6-8 weeks for manufacturing.

#JS6030 Jefferson shoe $320.00
These are copied from a drawing of the shoes Thomas Jefferson wore at his inauguration in 1801. These are a shoe that comes 2” above the ankle, as described in a book on riflemen printed in 1812. This must have been a common type of work shoe since I have seen styles similar as early as the mid 1700’s. These are listed as shoes sometimes and other as boots, but the truth is they are bootee which means taller than a shoe but shorter than a boot. These would have been made with a welted and sewn sole since pegged sole did not come in till 1818. We do not make these shoes in smoothout. These are offered in the correct waxed leather or rough out finished to look smooth.
Available in Black only.
Available in Size 7 through 12 and Half sizes 7 1/2 through 11 1/2.

#CR126 Crown soap 4oz container $11.25
We are now offering this period soap for cleaning leather. This is based off a period recipe for soap liked by harness makers. This is not like modern saddle soaps but instead is mostly made from cod oil. This type of soap will clean the leather but not be harsh enough to damage the leather. Leather items should be cleaned with soap several times a year in order to prevent the build up of dirt and other things that will damage the grain surface.

This is specially designed product to give you maximum life out of your leather items. This is the clear wax, for use on russet items. This wax contains a natural mold and mildew inhibiter, along with protection from insect damage.
