Brown Walker boot covers

The brown Walker boot covers are tall leg covers in a brown leather look that fit over your shoes, with a wide cuff and a lace along the back. You pull them over regular black shoes and tuck your trousers into them, so it looks as if you are wearing tall riding boots. For men who are going as a musketeer for carnival or at a theme party, they complete the lower part of the costume.

Why does a musketeer wear boots with a wide cuff?

In the well-known adventure stories, a musketeer wears tall riding boots with a wide turned-over shaft at the top, a style that belonged to riders and nobles of that time. That cuff is how you recognize the boot, and on these boot covers it is generously wide. Are you torn between covers and a pair of real costume boots? A boot cover has no sole of its own, so you walk around all evening in your familiar shoes. Choose covers if you stand or dance a lot and the boot is mainly meant to be seen.

Hat, tunic and boot covers for a recognizable musketeer

You recognize a musketeer by the combination of a wide hat with a feather, a tunic with a lily on the chest and tall boots. Tuck a black or dark trouser into the covers, then the boot looks like one piece with your trousers and the cuff falls just below the knee. Long wavy hair or a mustache with sideburns completes the image of the swordsman. Black shoes work best, because the toe and the heel remain visible and then blend into the dark bottom of the boot.

Order the brown Walker boot covers and give your musketeer costume for carnival tall brown boots without needing other shoes.
