Full description: |
A single green canvas 'greshoppa' gaiter, shaped to go over the top of the foot. It is lined with a black woollen textile, and edged with pale green leather (all except for the upper edge). The heel and foot area are reinforced on the inside with pale green leather, and the vertical openings are reinforced on the inside with brown leather. Each vertical edge has seven metal hooks with a metal eyelet at the bottom on the left side and at the top on the right side; square leather laces are knotted through the eyelets. There is a green leather strap fixed to the bottom of the ankle with two metal studs, with a metal buckle, for fastening the gaiter at the ankle; and a green leather strap stitched to the base of the gaiter, with a metal buckle, to create a stirrup beneath the foot. There is a textile label inside with 'Gresshoppa // [grasshopper symbol] // A/S K.K. & Co // MADE IN NORWAY'.
