I have it on the recommendation of a trusted friend that Viking Leather Crafts produces some fine boots. Certainly at the listed prices, I can see little to complain about!
Their period footwear offerings:

Very nice prices and assortment !
While there check out the buckles they sell separately. They also have some calf high moc/boots for well under $200.

Very nice footgear and excellent prices!
Pity he doesn't make larger women's sizes. Sure is excellent work though, no mistake.

Re: Turnsoles, shoes, and boots.
Oh we have several pairs of their shoes. My son has one pair. Hubby has 2. I don't as non of them suit me for my sca period really.
If you want another good source try Bohemond at http://www.nmia.com/~bohemond/index.html as well.
And they go up to women's 10 at least and men's 13.
Both sources shoes are sized well. I know I usually have to go larger in shoes alot when I can't get a wide width, but the Irish women's on Bohemond's I got in a 10 because of that.. well I could have gone with a 9 hehe. But I put inserts in all my period shoes anyway so the extra room works out hehe.

Re: Turnsoles, shoes, and boots.
I have ladies size 12 feet. There're a lot of us about these days...shoe makers haven't seem to have figured that out as of yet. I know a fair number of gals with larger feet than I have.
I have bohemond boots for my son, SCA boots for him, but I have to make all of my own...or wear mens..which isn't quite right shape-wise. Modern footwear...no worries..still have my size 12 pumps, Marine issue.
