The shoe maker used this description to explain the concept behind their shoes: "Sabots are wooden shoes. People all over the world have been wearing them in one form or another for over a thousand years. We shape our Sabots like modern sculpture, cantilevered to make you look like you are about to take off. Each Sabot is individually cut out of Mountain Pine, reinforced with hardwood strips, (the stripe running through the bottom) then dipped in fine aniline dye and coated with clear Egyptian Lacquer to seal in the colors. You can wear Sabots in really cold weather with striped or colored wool socks and panty hose. Both create happy graphic effects. Experiment with different looks- like fake tattoos. Just have a good time- that's what we had in mind for you."

Sizing details

Each item is carefully measured in inches and this information can be found in the item description.

Determining Fit

The best way to determine fit is to compare the measurements listed with your measurements. If you don't know your measurements, you can easily use a tape measure to take them. Knowing your measurements will help with all of your online shopping. Simply measure your bust around the largest point, your waist around the smallest point (just above the belly button), and your hips around the largest point (at the mid to lower bum).
