Description
Never compromise on style, durability, or all-day comfort again with these premium knee-high leather boots. They have a soft, comfortable insole and durable hiking-boot-style soles. They look great with any ancient or modern kilted outfit, or you can pair them with any non-kilted outfit without looking out of place.
Available in whole sizes and designed to fit Celts with wider calves, you’re sure to find the perfect fit! Like many of our customers, be prepared to receive lots of compliments when wearing this boot, which combines a traditional Renaissance period look with modern functionality. We won’t be surprised if these become your go-to boots for everyday wear!
Boots adjust to fit nearly all calf sizes.
These boots come in whole sizes only and fit true to size. Our boots tend to run on the roomy side as far as width goes. Generally, people with wide feet still order their regular size.
If you normally wear Men’s Size 9 – order size 9.
If you normally wear Men’s size 9.5 – order size 10.
Women’s sizes: Women’s sizes tend to be 1 to 1.5 sizes smaller than men ‘s sizes by our best judgement.
If you normally wear a women’s size 8 – order size 7.
If you normally wear a women’s size 8.5 – order size 7.
If you have an event coming up soon, order two pair and we’ll be happy to take back the one that doesn’t fit.

Fantastic boot. Sturdy and well made. These are the real deal, not some cheap knockoff, and at a great price. The fit is exhalant, very comfortable, not to mention they look good too. I plan on doing some hiking on the Isle of Skye, in Scotland, and these boots will be perfect for that task, worn, of course, with my utility kilt.

These boots were exactly what I was looking for! Incredible quality and craftsmanship, and stunning to behold. I think they will last me a long time. Thank you!

Just purchased, and these feel like great quality boots! I work and live at a renaissance faire for about 3-4 months out of the year, so I shall return in due time to update my review! I wear a size 12.5 and wide, I ordered the 12. I agree with other opinions that these do run a size or a half size large. They fit my feet beautifully, though. See you soon with my full-time use review!
Robert C (verified owner) –
These boots are perfect. I had to search way to hard to find something like this made with real leather instead of something fake. So glad I finally found them!
Richard G (verified owner) –
These are some great looking, well-made boots that will compliment any medieval outfit. However, if you’re a LARPer like myself be aware that after a long day of walking your feet may start to hate you. For me, they definitely caused some minor blistering after 1.5 days of walking even after I added some arch support insoles. I’d still take them on a walk through a Ren Faire for a day and they really do look spectacular…but for long stretches, have some plan of action for making the insides a lot more cushion-y.

Okay! So! My wife order the boots. She wants boots for the winter. Received the pkg on time. I opened the pkg and I said: “This are some boots”. Got on the website and I was impressed. I like those kilts. I want one, for the next time I’m going for a competitive run. Anyway, my wife saw the boots and she didn’t like them anymore. Contact the company. The owner responds. She is very polite and nice after I told her the reason we are returning the boots. Once she received them in the mail, we got reimburse. So, yeah. I’m impressed. When I’ll be able, I’m getting that kilt for my run.

I absolutely love my new boots, gonna get an insert, as they are a lil big…..after that…..TOTALLY AMAZING ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Kevin H (verified owner) –
Boot is exactly what i was looking for. This was a gift for my son and matched a pair I had bought years ago. They stand up very well as I work at Fairs and have had mine for at least 7 years.

I just wanted you to know that I received the boots this afternoon. UPS parks in front of my house and the package doesn’t look big enough to to have the boots and kilt hangers in it. I’m thinking it’s something else or my roommatespackage. It was my boots, and I wore them to my event and they were a hit. I put some Bick 4 leather conditioner I use on my cowboy boots, and the softened up really nice.
Thank you for everything. Thank you forgoing out of your way and adding the third kilt hanger!

Great looking boots,can’t wait to wear them with my kilts
Tim Dance (verified owner) –
These boots look great. Are comfortable to wear and stand up to everything I put them through for 12-hour days out at Renfest!
geo.garrett (verified owner) –
Just got the package via Shipito, it was totally worth every $ and day of wating! Now I’m fully equipped to St.Patrick’s Parade and future festrivals. I have no other words except – that’s great!
Was a bit worried about foot size while making order – usually there’s an “inflation” of sizes and goods arrive smaller than expected, but not this shop, it’s even a bit bigger than my usual size. Thanks a lot!

These are way better than I thought! Wonderful boots ! They are going to look amazing when I wear them at my wedding! This company has a new life long customer
Alisha M Crooks –
Great quality! I’ve been wanting to buy a good pair of boots for the renaissance festival and the boots that most others sell have thin soles. These boots are exactly what I was looking for.
Rob Ritchie –
I love the boots. I had seen a Scottish Celtic Rock Band wearing similar ones, and thought they looked real rad with a kilt. I must admit, they hurt the bridge of my feet at first…when I complained, even though I had worn them a couple of times, they offered me a store credit if I returned them. So, I decided to keep them. After several wearing’s and oiling with mink & lanoline oils, they stretched to the shape of my feet, and now I am really glad I kept them! They look great with my kilts and I comfortably hike in them quite often.

Fit good, look good. What more need be said?
Matt (verified owner) –
The boots came and fit nearly perfectly. Can’t wait to wear them at the Va Celtic Festival and Highland Games! Thanks!

FINE QUALITY !

I love the quality and was pleasantly surprised at the workmanship. Really think these are a great buy. Heading to Renfair in them first, then every day wear, too. Love you guys! Delivery was super fast. Thanks, thanks, thanks!

Great,these boots are perfect on my feets.
Love the design in black and brown.
Never seen somebody else wearing them in Belgium.
Took me long time to get them at my front door.
With custom taxes paid they cost me around 300$.
But they are double worth it, love them.
Trying to wear them as often as i can, they feel that great.
Sabrina Welsh (verified owner) –
Beautiful, exactly what my fiancee was looking for and he LOVES THEM. Arrived right on time, worth the money paid for them.

I received my boots 3/10/17, looked better than they did on the website. The fit was great I added superfeet insoles, they’re in all my shoes. Now these are the best feeling boots I have. Learning to lace and tie with one string was tricky but finally got it. I had to contact customer service and could not be happier

I bought these boots for winter wear. I wear a kilt every day and these boots have kept my legs warm on my walks at break time. They broke me feet in the first day 😉
I stand all day at work, mostly for 9 to 9 and a half hours and they are comfortable as my regular steel toed “sneakers”,
Dan –
Was very comfortable when I wore them at the Renaissance faire. Did not have to get inserts like other boots. Take a bit of time to lace and get on.
William T –
Fantastic boots! They are well made, fit well and get a lot of compliments. They look great with either a casual outfit or with your dress outfit- especially if you are attending a function when it has snowed!
The button lace design takes some getting used to, but once you have the hang of if, you’re good to go!
Cheri L –
After a few weeks of researching prices of these boots, I could find NONE for a lesser price anywhere (and believe me when I say scoured the net!) So, I made my purchase still rather hesitantly due to women’s reviews of this boot not fitting them well (as they are men’s boots). When
they arrived (on time, even!) I opened the box and immediately fell in love with the boots…however, I remained skeptical of the fit. I put them on and was SO pleased!! THEY FIT PERFECTLY! (even with socks). I have a wide foot and typically wear a 7 1/2 in women’s shoes/ boots. I purchased the 5 in men’s. If you have muscular or bigger calves, the boots are a must because they lace up so are adjustable to your comfort. It is snowy in Montana right now and although these boots are not water proof they are warm with good traction. Thank you Celtic Croft for providing such a fantastic boot at such a reasonable price! I will definitely be making more purchases for family as well as for myself 😉
david g –
These tend to run a bit large but after an exchange with the friendly folks at Celtic Croft I cannot be more pleased. The boots are well made and very comfortable from the moment I put them on. Thanks guys.
Phillip M –
These boots are pure greatness. Have worn them around the house so far, but the fit is good(I run to a EE or sometimes EEE width depending on shoe/boot). They are comfortable and fit well. The styling is good and they don’t feel too heavy. Will definitely recommend to friends getting into Ren Faires and such.
Ryan C –
The perfect blend of the period flair, and modern functionality (referring to the sole/tread). I have calve that are annoyingly at the point between thin and thick, meaning finding knee boots that fit is a serious PAIN. These button/tie boots are utterly perfect to solve that problem. And they’re comfortable.
Couple all of that and when one realizes that similar-quality and style boots are $800+ at the local renfest just boggles the mind.
Hammer M –
Been wearing those darn moccasins for 14 seasons of Norcal Faire and my feet always hurt. With these new boots, this is the first time I’v been able to do faire and my feet are happy. Added bonus the girls seem to really like them 🙂
Gilbert G. –
Not too bad so far…I have “caveman” feet, so I ordered a larger size. I’ve worn them around the house to get use to the fit, and I have to admit that it isn’t too bad.
If this first pair works out, I will probably order a second pair later on.
Matt S. –
These boots are every bit as comfortable and well-built as the ones I was eyeing at the local RenFest that cost three times as much, which is surprising since they’re not custom-made, but off-the-shelf standard sizes. Awesome.
John –
I’m very happy with my boots. I usually have problems with boots not being wide enough but these are great. I thought they look good and my wife agreed, but when I received them we both thought they were even better looking in person. So if you think they look good you’ll be very happy especially for two hundred bucks great deal.
joseph b –
Great quality boot. I got several compliments the first time I wore them.
Clif –
These boots are awesome! Very comfortable, and my wife thinks I look great in them.
Wesley –
I received these boots for Christmas, 2011 and have worn them weekly since. I am thrilled to report that these wonderful boots! I am in love with them. No break in period needed and I wear them during SCA fencing practice every week without issue. Thanks for a great product!
Danny Clegg –
I am very pleased with your service. The boots are very well made and will look great with my ancient highlander outfit. They also came very fast. I am gratefull that you called and asked about my address. Excellent!!!!!!! You will see me again in the future. Thanks again for a wonderful transaction and a great pair of boots. Danny
Rebecca –
Rub a little on the anckle, but am very pleased with the look & over-all feel.
Gloria M. –
The boots arrived in excellent time and look good. The leather is good quality and they fit my husband’s foot well. They need some breaking in so that they lay well on the leg with out a crease. Easy to put on. They may have some water leakage because the side comes down and may fold over but that may go away with being worn. The soles are excellent. My husband must have a birkenstock arch in his shoes and the arch fits extremely well in the boots. The boots are a good buy and we hope to have many years of service from them.
Glen D. –
As a former shoe salesperson, I can appreciate quality product. These boots are far roomier than most I have encountered, and wear well with no break-in period. The individual lacing up the side allows for a more custom fit along the calf, and good support for the ankle. I love them, and I got them in less time than a comparable pair custom fitted would have taken.
David G. –
Awesome, just Awesome. Well made and wide. I normally wear a 9D or 9E and they fit me great. There is room for heavy insulated socks or if your like me, insoles. It does take a bit of practice to learn to lace them up quick, but that’s what kids are for. They look great with kilts, shorts, pirate knee pants, etc. The complements never seem to stop.
James N. –
I have to add an amendment to my earlier review…after wearing these all day at the Northern California Renaissance Faire with NO break-in period, I can say they were as comfortable as a pair of old-faithful boots I’ve had for years. I’ll be wearing these boots basically every time I’m kilted-up!
Rylin H. –
I like the fit alright, at least so far – a little loose for a woman’s ankles – but I think the soles are not a hiking sole but a work sole, and they are VERY heavy! I am going to have to take them to a shoe repair person and get them replaced before I can wear them very much. Thank goodness the soles are replaceable!
Jerry S. –
I thought these boots would be great for my reenactment garb but they turned out to be even better than I thought. I fight in these and they stand up to both my Medieval and my native American reenactment clubs! I would highly recommend these.
Jamaes N. –
I waited a long time for these to come back in stock, and they were worth the wait! I did add orthotic insoles for added comfort, but that’s not enough to (pardon the pun) kick about. They will be making their public debut on me on October 15th at the Northern California Renaissance Faire in Hollister, CA. Thanks again, guys, for a great product!

Very pleased. Great boots; great, affordable price for this amazing quality.

What a wonderful surprise – I have high arches and wide feet – the boots fit just fine!!! Excellent quality leather and soles – a terrific bargain.

Robert K –
Very happy with the quality. The size 9 boots are the right length for my size 9 foot, no surprise there. However they are a bit roomy in the foot. No problem. I just added a footbed (like Dr Scholls) and the fit is now great.
John W. –
For the price they are worth it. Sizing tends to run big and I would not try to climb a mountain in them, but they look great with my kilt.
Rob R. –
Great looking and comfortable boots! All day at Faire or Fest? No problem!
Ricki –
I received my Beautiful boots they were worth the wait !!! I really like them I look sexy in my new black boots ,, Thanks again so much !!
Kaurina Smith-assitant manager here at The Celtic Croft –
When we got the boots in stock I had to have a pair I was very excited to be able to wear them to the next festival, but when I tried them on I was disappointed to find out that they are not very comfortable. I have small ankles and the back support pushes into them and rubs, other than that they were wonderful but not the right fit for me 🙁 I have heard from other women that they had the same problem so keep in mind if you have small ankles you might run into this problem but if you aren’t sure, order a pair and if they don’t work you can always return them.

These boots are the most affordable Ren Fest style boots I have ever found. They almost fit my abnormally muscular calves @ 20-22 inches at their largest. I can get them on with some considerable lacing and have the fit perfectly but for ease I found a shoe store who could sew in an extra piece of leather to make lacing a breeze. Great boots Great Price I would recommend these for any Ren Fest dweller.
Lucas R. –
I am just writing this note to let you know how pleased I am with my new boots. Did not get a chance to break them in before wearing them to a recent Scottish Fair. I expected to get a lot of blisters and to exchange the boots for different and more comfortable shoes. I wore them all day and was on my feet walking all day and never have I had a more comfortable pair of boots. They were great!!! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for boots.
Thank you,
