There are one or two shoemakers who make theatrical footwear,
making buttoning boots- no zips but the boots aren't actually so pretty either...
There MUST be someone making them in a nice style, withouts zips.
I think we need to put our lateral shopping hats on and look in the
Wild West and Civil War areas of interest.....

Lateral shopping hat packed. Off to Australia tomorrow. If there's button boots out there I'll find 'em.

Zak Schue (http://www.zakschuhe.at) in Vienna have been making a buttoning boot (the Gamasche) since 1912.
Not a working boot, though...

You probably couldn't work in the 'Sissi Schuh', either. But they've got working parts.

Now that's quite enough, Creeping.
So are there Derbies, etc.
Probably too pricey for the punters round these parts...
They're NEVER going on SALE.

400 euro for the Tricouni.
That's what, 40 euro, 35 pounds, 50 dollars per year for a pair of well-made, good looking utilitarian boots.
It ain't pricey, it's money well spent.

Just in case you were serious...
They're hardcore, old school climbing boots.
Nailed with various types of hobnails and cleats and of course,
the Tricounis, around the edge.

I have a number of shoes from Schuh Bertl:
The Monaco (obviously)
Haferlschuhe
Sanders scotch grain NOS shoes (metal plates removed)
and a pair of Bertls 2003 boots.
The shoes are the among the best I have and the shop is a beauty. You should really stop by there, if you happen to be in Munich.
About the Tricouni's: they look great, but I can hardly think of any real world situation where those make sense. If you plan on serious alpine adventures in ice and snow, those would be too heavy. If you pan on wearing them to town, you will ruin any wooden floor or carpet and will be heard blocks away. Bertl does some things for fun and I understand the Tricouni's are among those items.

Red Wing 9012
Do these count as 40's or is the moc-toed workshoe considered 50's and later? I'm just curious if anyone has these and could tell me if they're as comfy as my Red Wing Iron-rangers.. I'm saving up for a pair of new boots..
