Size L from size 9 and above shoe size
What period do these spats represent?
These spats are reproductions of those worn by kilted Highland Scottish Regiments. They were in use until the beginning of WWI. They were replaced by wrap leggings after that time.
How do these spats fasten?
The spats primarily fasten with a Velcro attachment. Two functional buttons, one at the top and one at the bottom, secure the Velcro from detaching. Earlier versions of these spats had all functional buttons, which were more difficult to put on.
Are the buttons on these spats functional?
Only the top and bottom buttons on these spats are functional. These two buttons help to secure the Velcro fastening. The main closure is a Velcro attachment, which makes them easier to put on and take off.
How do these spats compare to original period items?
These spats are reproductions and incorporate modern compromises for ease of use. Original spats were more difficult to put on due to their full button closures. The Velcro attachment is not obvious when worn.
What are the dimensions of these spats?
All spats are 8 inches high at the front. The height at the back is 11.5 inches. The upper part at the back is positioned slightly to the inside of the leg, rather than straight at the back.
Can these spats be modified to have full button closures?
The spats have real buttons on the outside, making it possible to create buttonholes to adapt them for full button closures. This would require some work. The Velcro attachment may wear out with field use.
