 Based on shoes found in the Tudor era shipwreck
of the Mary Rose, and on many
shoes pictured in "Stepping through Time," and "Before the
Mast," The Mary Rose shoe is
representative of men's shoes worn about 1530 to 1700 and is the perfect
Tudor or renaissance shoe. The Mary Rose was Henry VIII's favorite war ship which was lost in 1545.
Originally a welted shoe, this shoe features an all leather welted sole, a laced closure and a square toe as well as nailed leather heel. The Mary Rose Shoe is constructed of 2.5 to 3.5 oz top-grain cowhide leather, and the sides are overstitched. This shoe is always in stock! This is the perfect shoe for Tudor, Ren / Renn / Renaissance fairs, late medieval reenactments, and living history groups. It has been approved for use at James Town and Roanoke Island. Available in Men's and Women's sizes, the Mary Rose Shoe comes in Black only and is $75.
