Your footwear will eventually deteriorate beyond usability, leaving you without proper protection until you find replacements or fix them. Here's your essential guide to acquiring and repairing shoes in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2.
Acquiring Shoes in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Though you begin with shoes, you're not bound to them permanently. New footwear can be obtained through various methods - discovered in chests, looted from poachers and other human foes, or acquired legally by purchasing them.
While tailors in settlements like Troskowitz stock basic shoes, cobblers offer superior options. One can be found early in Trosky, identifiable on the map by distinctive red circular symbols as illustrated below.

Cobblers offer more than just shoes - Matthew, for instance, sells equestrian gear alongside footwear. They also stock essential repair materials including specialized Cobbler's Kits and Blacksmith's Kits.
Shoe Repair Methods

Several options exist for shoe maintenance. Professional repair services are available through cobblers and blacksmiths - simply select the repair dialogue option to view service costs. These expenses can be reduced by investing in relevant Craftsmanship perks that provide repair discounts.
Self-repair is possible but skill-dependent. If your Craftsmanship level proves insufficient, certain repairs may be beyond your capability. Essential for DIY fixes is acquiring a Cobbler's Kit - available from various merchants including cobblers and blacksmiths, or found while looting.
Using these kits requires accessing your inventory, selecting the kit (press E on PC), then choosing repairable items from the menu. Grayed-out items indicate insufficient skill levels. Successfully repaired footwear maintains its protective qualities - crucial for your adventures.
These principles extend to other gear using Blacksmith's Kits, though professional repairs remain a viable alternative. Maintaining equipment in good condition significantly enhances your survival chances in the game's challenging world.
