Les mules sont des chaussures en cuir simples et nécessitant peu d'entretien pour le XVIIIe siècle. Ceux-ci s’enlèvent et s’enfilent sans avoir besoin de boucles ou d’attaches. Le talon bas les rend faciles à porter toute la journée. Ces mules sont finies dans une couleur nude.
I learned about your store from Justine Dorn from Early American - your products are so lovely and were shipped well and quickly. I ordered the mules: Lovely looking shoes but very uncomfortable. I was surprised since all the reviewers found them to be very comfortable. I wore them for a few hours but had to take them off; I won't be able to wear these shoes. The insole is very hard and has no possible give since the sole is wooden. My feet are tiny and thin so they slipped around in the shoe even with the cotton stockings. After wearing I have a little bruise on the bone on top of my foot and my heal is very sore.
Sorry that our Mules did not work out for you. The foot should never slide around in the shoe. These mules are meant to fit like a glove. If there is a lot of movement, chances are it is the wrong size. To clarify, the soles are not wooden, but rather leather. Like any leather shoe, there may be a small amount of time needed to break in the shoe.
I wear these almost every day. I work as a historical interpreter and these are comfy and sturdy. I made sure to scuff the soles to add more traction.
Great! Perfect look! Perfect fit! The first of several items that my wife and I have purchased from Samson. We purchased these shoes and a pair of boots at Old Fort Frederick while in that area and then went to your store in Lebanon for additional clothing and accoutrements. We were able to get everything we needed for my Revolutionary War Militia impression. A great experience in every way!
