Refreshing my Fell & Fair Ranger Boots

 Hello friends, and welcome back to Our Basement Workshop! Today, I'd like to talk to you about boots. Specifically, my Medieval Ranger Boots by Fell & Fair.

I purchased them through the Fell & Fair website about two years ago for $189. Since then, they've seen a great number of adventures and it was time to give them a little refresh.

Sterling Renaissance Festival - 08/03/2025

 On Sunday, August 3rd, 2025, we made our first visit to the Sterling Renaissance Festival in upstate New York. We were joined in our adventuring party by my parents, both of my brothers and their wives.


According to the festival's website, the year is 1585 and you have entered the village of Warwick, England, a small country town not far from the bustling city of London.

They are celebrating their 49th year of fun and the theme for this fifth weekend was Highland Fling.
