Hunter boot covers

The Hunter boot covers are black shafts with a wide turned-down collar, making regular shoes look like tall riding boots. They evoke the image of the seventeenth-century musketeer or the pirate on deck, with boots reaching below the knee. They are designed for men, and during carnival or for a theme party, you simply pull them over your own shoes.

Features of the boot covers

• The colour is solid black, with a smooth and slightly shiny finish.
• At the top, a turned-down cuff falls over the shaft, finished with visible stitching along the edge.
• The front extends over the instep, so only the front part of your shoe remains visible.
• The material is 100% polyurethane.
• The boot covers are not washable.
• They are made for men.

Musketeer and pirate boot covers

Tall boots with a turned-down shaft, also known as boot covers, are part of the image of the musketeer with his rapier and the pirate on board his ship. That wide collar at the top makes the silhouette recognisable, even from a distance on a busy dance floor. Because the edge falls double over the shaft, it stands out clearly above your calf, so choose these leg covers if you want that collar to be visible. You do not need to buy real boots for them and simply walk in your own shoes.

What do you wear over the boot covers for a musketeer or pirate look?

A black pair of trousers tucked into the shaft allows the turned-down cuff to stand out best. For the musketeer, a wide-brimmed hat, a stick-on moustache with a pointed beard, and possibly a lace collar are essential. As a pirate, choose a three-cornered hat, an earring, or a pair of chunky rings, and with some brown face paint around the eyes, you get a weathered sailor look. An eye patch completes the pirate image.

Order the Hunter boot covers and stand out during carnival as a musketeer or pirate in tall boots, simply over your own shoes.
