Theodoric Leggings

Theoderic's Leggings

"The streets were covered in mud and filth at this time of year, and though he did his best, he couldn't shake it off. The mud stuck to his shoes with a tenacity like a wild badger. He was late for his appointment with the mayor, an appointment that might finally allow him to open a new clinic. When he knocked on the door, he felt nervous, just as he had when he was taking his first exam, and his stomach churned as if he were at sea during a violent storm. Fortunately, a well-dressed butler opened the door at that moment, and he was admitted. Theodoric silently thanked his mother for the new leggings, making sure he would look his best for the meeting."

Theodoric gaiters are made of suede and protect the lower legs, boots, and shoes from dirt and water. They cover from the ankle and top of the foot to the knee and are secured by tightening the two leather laces that surround them, ensuring a snug fit. There are additional holes at the bottom to secure the gaiters around the sole. Gaiters like these are often used to ensure your modern footwear doesn't look out of place during a LARP event or as they were originally used to protect against mud, rain, snow, or dirt.
