**SOLD** FS: Halberds Sabs
« on: 2014-03-24, 16:28:09 »
For sale is a pair of custom sabatons that the AA's very own Halberds made for me several years ago.  They were designed to fit over a pair of size 10 shoes, specifically the 14th century shoes that Viking Leathercraft sells.  If you wear a similar shoe these will work out great.  They fit very well over the shoe they were built for.  They are made of light gauge (I want to say 20 or 22 gauge) stainless steel, and include brass decoration and brass rivet work.  They are very light and comfortable, and stainless is nice to have if the ground is muddy.  The heel plate is articulated on internal leathers and secures using a simple leather strap and buckle.  The lames articulate on rivets.  The sabatons feature eyelets for pointing at the toe, and optionally at the sides of the foot as well.  These have served me well, but alas, changes to my kit dictate that it is time they move to a new home.  There are no functional issues with them.  There are of course signs of use on the metal finish and the leather straps. 

$400 OBO, paypal only.
