THE STORY OF ECCE CALIGAE

Why did the Legions of Rome wear caligae for more than 500 years?  What was so special about their design?  And how did that same design allow men to conduct forced marches of 40 and 50 miles? The answer is found in the unique design of this 21st Century reincarnation.  Ecce Caligae barefoot hiking boots use a patented clamshell suspension that uniquely cradles and conforms to a wearer's individual foot - providing the perfect fit - every time! 

While cradling your foot inside soft oil tanned leather, the design capitalizes upon a series of overlapping leather straps which flex without binding, eliminating hot spots and friction points, permitting wearers to go the distance in amazing comfort.  Ecce Caligae hiking boots take this ancient proven design, combined with 21st Century updates - such as glove leather lined arch support insoles and Vibram soles - to deliver the ultimate in hiking performance.
