CUSTOM ORDER: Rambling Alice Boots















CUSTOM ORDER: Rambling Alice Boots
These beautiful simple walking boots are faithful reproductions of an original pair from the late 1800s, early 1900s and were designed for my niece Alice as an easy going everyday unisex model. They are great walking boots, with a little brogue line on the toe cap to give them a vintage look.
The round toe and brogue detail give them a unique look- great for accurate reenactment, costume work or simply for stylishly combining with a modern outfit.

You can choose your usual size.
The last is unisex and quite generous, with plenty of room in the toe box, ideal if you like to wear thicker socks or have wider feet. We do not make a wide fit of these boots, if you have very wide feet, please get in touch with us.
When in between sizes, always go for the bigger of the two sizes.

Wider ankle/calf variation:
The standard height of these boots is 17cm high in our size EU39.
Our calf fits…
🦵🏾ORIGINAL SLIM CALF : If you consider your ankles and lower calves to be slender to regular, this is for you.

Please bear in mind these measurements vary according to the size.

If you are still unsure, you can send us your foot measurements, and tell us more about the sizes you usually wear so we can advise you.
The best thing to do is to draw an outline of your foot, and then draw a rectangular box around it. If you then give us the measurements of the width and length of your foot we can advise you best that way! See the “step by step” image below.

Most of our styles are available to have made just for you in the same style as on the listing, if your size is out of stock. A made to order item is fully returable and refundable.
They cost the same as a stock item, the only difference is the waiting time, as they must be manufactured.
This takes about 4-8 weeks.
If you would like to order the same style but would like some alterations made in colour or design, then a Custom order is the way to go! They are personalised which means they take a little longer to manufacture at 8-10 weeks.
Because they are bespoke they are non refundable. In the rare case that they do not fit or meet your expectations we will remake them. We offer a full customer support to make sure all the details of your order are clear and that the boots fit you.
