Jim
welcomes email enquiries
to produce his replica character footwear. All footwear is individually
hand crafted to order, to high standards in your size.
Jim has created the
footwear for Gandalf, Aragorn, Galadriel, Arwen, Boromir, Legolas
and more for Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings movie series.
As some styles were
built for effect and not necessarily for durability, we make
the similar styles for more robust streetwear and longer lasting
wear. This may necessitate some changes, some subtle, some major.
Several
styles of boots and shoes are available
including the following:
- Grey Wizard
boots - Brown leather,
front lace - $NZ 750 per pair
- Forest
Ranger - pull-on,
black leather boots with fold-down top - $NZ 900 per pair
- Elven Queen
- White and golden
fabric boots - $NZ 500 per pair
- Elven Princess
Riding Boots - Back
lace, leaf wrap sides, grey suede boots - $NZ 1200 per pair
- Elven Court
- Ankle high, button
closed, brocade shoes - $NZ 500 per pair
Serious purchasers
will be forwarded images of requested boots. Prices quoted above
are for "standard sizes" and do not include shipping
and customs costs. Payments are by Mastercard, Visa or American
Express Cards. A 25% deposit will be charged on placement of
order, and balance on dispatch of shoes 4-6 weeks later. Orders
can be placed in Continental, English Standard or American shoe
sizes
