Greek & Roman Clothing

Although caligae can resemble modern sandals, they were actually designed as marching boots. What the Romans considered “sandals” were not worn outside and were considered indoor footwear. Caligae were heavy soled hobnailed military boots issued to Roman Legionaries and auxiliaries throughout the Roman Empire.

Our Roman Caligae are manufactured by Deepeeka. They are authentically designed and favoured by Roman reenactors worldwide. They were developed with the help of experts within this field and are made from durable leather with reinforced hobnailed soles.
