Medieval moccasins and ghillies for Highlanders, irish goblins and fairies

We´ve all seen drawings in old books of Irish fairy tales with those fancy to dance all night away with goblins and fairies… Ghillies are typical soft  leather shoes for irish and scottish dancing in fact and have a lovely ancient traditional historical look For an accurate definition read this wikipedia article about them (yes I know this term is also used for some camouflage material as we´ll cover in the future). Surfing the net I found the perfect site for them… Medieval moccasins shop make them in EVERY color, the color chart is rather complete and include even some shiny metallic finish options. If you don’t want your ghillies to be the standard black colour this is definately your shop, and aside from standard ghillies and sandals they also make lovely boots knee-high in ghillie style that are definetely very sexy and fitting for fairy costumes but also for men with their kilt in “Braveheart” of Highlander mood . I wish I could grab a pair in white and black for myself arg and red!! and purple!! (sigh!!). Another thing on my “wish list” of course. They are amazing!

If I were you I’d bookmark this site as a first option because it offers great quality and a wealth of possibilities. If you want a cheaper option you can also find simpler models in other stores like the following:


And of course there are some models in ebay in several shops of dance wear, you can check there clicking the picture below

Now Dance… Dance… Dance!!!!

Morgan Hearsey is a leather mask artist sculptor based in USA. The masks are hand-dyed, painted with non toxic acrylic leather paints, crafted and all come numbered, dated and signed by the artist. They also come with care instructions, ties, ribbons, beads and other embellishments… it really shows that she puts great care to make a customer happy! I am the proud owner of one of her masks (custom artic blue model in white with silver accents) which I often use in my shows, and certainly go back to her site often to see the increasing number of beautiful models. Gothic, dark, colourful, fairy or fantasy… a wealth of mood and colours to choose wether you want to become a Demon Queen, a raven, a Jester, a Green Man… she has options for almost everyone!
