Boots!!!

Sir Brian:
Low boots sound like the best solution for you then. You could go with period high boots but they’ll run you the same as a pair of Saddler. As for form, fit and cost Viking Leather crafts are a good option.

As for a custom tabard you are in luck since you are local I can give you the contact information of the seamstress I use who has done several projects for me, including the surcoat in my profile picture. She also has made braies, chausses and tunics for me and her embroidery is very affordable. Drop me a PM if you want her contact info.  ;)

Sir Jason Simonds:
Yeah the guy at Viking is really good about answering questions and getting back to people in a timely manner.

Lord Dane:
Agreed. If calves are problem, I would go with low cut boots. If you want high boots, do  flax linen material as opposed to leather. It molds to form fit you better and has better ability to stretch. Or make sure leather boots are custom fit to calves and use an easy to mold veg-tanned leather. Other leather for boots is more rigid.

Aiden of Oreland:
Making some is always an option too :)

Thorsteinn:
Also Amlann boots and Boots by Bohemond.
