LA Police Gear Boots
Many of my readers participate in reenactment events. It ranges very widely. Some participate in Gatsby Picnics and Art Deco New Year’s Eve Balls. Some participate in Civil War or World War II reenactment. Historical accuracy is important, but sometimes for events that include physical exertion, you don’t want to ruin antiques and vintage items. The LA Police Gear website offers tactical boots.
In particular, they have a very light weight Operator Boot. It is very protective, but very light, and it was made for movement. The very narrow boot shaft makes it very feasible to make a fabric or leather over cover to transform them into character shoes for the Renaissance Faire. Some of the other, heavier boots may not look exactly like WWII boots, but if they don’t have the resources, many of those involved in reenactment spend more of their resources on the uniform to get the look and purchase the big ticket item, such as boots, last. A few of the LA Police Gear boot styles may work, and offer a more economical alternative until you find your sixty year old pair. Or, you may have a reproduction pair, but they aren’t always practical for all situations.
