Cambridge Edwardian Bicycle Boots (Brown/Brown)
Description
We must admit the Edwardians had serious style when it came to sporting attire. Our Cambridge Edwardian Bicycle Boots echo this past panache with glorious leather paired with flexible cotton twill canvas, quick-lacing, and double straps at the top. We've based the Cambridges on several pairs of original bicycle boots from the early 20th century, but updated for modern comfort, width, and durability. These boots aren't just for cycling, too. Wear them with bloomers, breeches, knickers, or skirts of any length for historical, vintage, historybounding, or modern attire.
As a lace-up boot, Cambridge Boots are very adjustable for a wide variety of ankle and calf measurements. The top of the Cambridge Boots do reach the calf muscle, and we've designed this area to be particularly adjustable for a broad range.
Calf Size Range - 14 - 20 in / 35.6 - 50.8 cm
Ankle circumference - 8.5 - 13 in / 21.6 - 32.5 cm

Design & Production
I normally wear a 6 but it was too small and I easily exchanged them for a 7. I was so impressed with their customer service. They sent me the 7 before I even shipped the 6 back, so my new shoes were here before I knew it!!! Perfection! I wore them for the first time during a 10 hour day out in nyc where I live - and they were incredibly comfortable for the entire time. I love the vintage design, and am very very impressed by the quality. I will absolutely a million times order more shoes from this brand.
As always, these boots are absolutely beautiful! I'm so excited to break them in and wear them in the autumn.
My daughter bought these boots last year and I have been lusting over them since. Thank you, Bastille Day Sale! Finally, I can justify getting them, knowing these boots will be worn in and out of season and will probably replace every other pair of black boots/shoes I own.
I did buy 1/2 a size up, because the toe is more narrow than the aviator boots, which I own in brown. It was a wise decision.
I absolutely love these boots! I can’t stop wearing them. I get so many compliments and I love telling people what era they represent. Modern shoes and boots are nowhere near as beautiful and interesting. Also! They are so comfortable.
These boots were probably one of the greatest Christmas gifts I have ever received! However, I will advise you to be careful walking about if you live in an area that gets snow and ice in the Winter, as the boots will slip on ice. They do fit me a little loosely, but I may grow in later years to fit them better. Overall, they are amazing boots!
