Very worth the money, and, I believe, still readily available...

longer on the little toe - always a possibility.

Can you post some of those references? They don't seem to be showing up in the stuff I have found... (not being antagonistic... I would just like to have it in hand before saying anything)

AND, as far as re-enactorisms are concerned, there are far more shoes
and shoe fragments that are laced in some way. The Latchet or Toggle is
pretty rare in reality.

Agreed...
