Archaeological 9th Century Shoes from Latvia- Pastalas

From the moment of ordering, the shoes will be made in 3 to 4 weeks + shipping time.

*Handcrafted Pastalas are traditional Latvian shoes inspired by archaeological finds from the 9th to 12th centuries.
*Made from natural cattle leather, these shoes reflect Latvia's rich cultural heritage and craftsmanship.
*These are barefoot shoes, designed to allow natural foot movement and enhance comfort.
*Each pair is unique, with colors ranging from natural earthy tones to traditionally dyed shades like blue and green.
*These shoes have roots dating back to this period and are found not only in Latvia but also throughout the Baltics and Europe.

Recommended Use:
*Ideal for indoor use, soft ground, and forest paths.
*Best suited for spring and summer, but also worn comfortably with wool socks in cooler weather.
*Avoid rough, abrasive surfaces and wet conditions

Care Instructions:
*Waxing: Before use, apply leather wax to protect and enhance durability. Regular waxing will maintain the leather's quality (especially after the sun).
*Drying: If wet, allow the shoes to air dry naturally. Do not use heat to dry, as this may shrink or harden the leather.
