Grindelwald Boots

[Showtunes]

Hi all,

I am putting together a Grindelwald cosplay and I'm having a lot of trouble with the boots. I have found everything else I need but I don't even know what the term is for the type of boots he wears (which makes them hard to search for). Could I get some help? This was the best image I could find.

I am not sure what you would call them either other than custom, with some inspiration taken from Newt's boots.
A lace up riding boot would be a good place to start, or you could probably fake the laces with a more common rear zip riding boot.
The piece at the ankle (decorative gaiter?) would make an easy way to camouflage an extension for ankle or western boots as well.

Are you considering making them or? Because if so you simply just search it on google. I typed "Grindelwald boots" and there it was.

Found this picture after a tip on a different topic. The boots were made by a company called Jitterbug Boy Shoes.
