The pattern on ETSY was interesting, I have
seen some similar among some found at Vindolanda, but I
believe they were identified as "civilian". Use the
rubber soles as a pattern for leather ones. The rubber
could be used as a insole to help make them more
comfortable. Just sayin . . . .:)

there were 5 of us, but kudos to Josh for
setting it up. Rob was not able to make it due

plan on these monthly, maybe bi-monthly As we
use this format, uit will get easier.

Footwear
As most of us detest caligae for hurting our
feet, whynot get an enclosed shoe? I am posting
the link to some of the following:
vindolanda fell boot by Masterbogdan
<https://www.etsy.com/listing/778764472/vindolanda-fell-boot-calcei?ref=shop_home_active_9&frs=1>
These are the ones Mark said were good. He has
this pair also, but I am not sure of the
correctness for our time:
Castleford No 13 Roman shoes ( Soldier shoes)
Shoes of Roman soldiers of the 1st century
AD. Reconstruction based on
finds.
<https://www.etsy.com/listing/857982761/castleford-no-13-roman-shoes-soldier?ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1>
These look interesting and good, but I'd ask
Mark, he might see something incorrect.
And HERE: is an interesting kit. I know, rubber
soles, etc. but someone is thinking ahead.

Mark said the Fell
boots were okay, but he said the ones like you bought (and
Paul bought) were only for officers. I dunno, he won't really
respond about footwear.
