Boots are sturdy black footwear and one of the best everyday choices for the feet. They guard the feet fully against bites and scratches. They also keep the feet warm and fairly dry in bad weather.
Their main strength is full protection for the feet together with good warmth. Their main cost is speed, because heavy boots slow running a little. They also wear down a bit faster than the toughest boots in the game.
Boots are found in clothing stores, department stores and shoe stores, and now and then in house closets. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
Boots stop every bite and every scratch aimed at the feet. They keep the feet warm and block most of the wind. They also keep out a good share of rain and puddle water. That makes them a strong choice for autumn and winter.
They cut running speed by a tenth. A stomp in boots hits a little harder than in regular shoes.
Military Boots and Work Boots give the same full protection. They are warmer, block all wind, keep out more water and stomp harder. They also last longer, with more condition and a lower chance of wear per hit. Hiking Boots offer the same protection and last longer, but keep the feet less warm. Regular Shoes stop only a tenth of bites and run faster, so boots are the far safer pick.
Boots take the Shoes slot, so only one pair of footwear can be worn at a time.
Tailoring
The Research Craft option on Boots teaches two recipes: Sew Hide Boots and Make Western Boots. A spare pair is a quick way to learn how to make footwear from hides.
The Research Craft option in the inventory menu studies Boots and teaches the recipes below.
