All of our shoes are made in our shop in Lebanon, Indiana. If there is a color
or pattern variation you desire, please contact us. This includes orthopedics.
Our shoes are made from oak tanned top grain leather with the rough side out
for greater durability. All shoes are stitched internally and soles are hand
pegged for the longest life possible. Techniques and style are similar to those
used to produce shoes during the 1860's. We also utilize a hickory shank as
an arch support. We guarantee the quality of materials and workmanship for one
year (excluding campfire or heat damage to the soles). We were the first to
offer a guarantee on our shoes over 19 years ago, and continue to stand by our
product. Our brogans are well known, and are also available from most of the
major Civil War reproduction suppliers (sutlers) in the US, Canada, Germany,
Japan, and Italy. We are very proud of our products, and you will be too!
