In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, your journey might lead you to a point where your shoes wear out completely, leaving you to wander barefoot until you find a solution. Understanding how to acquire and repair shoes is essential to keep your adventures uninterrupted.
How to Get Shoes in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
Screenshot by The EscapistWhile you start the game with a pair of shoes, you're not bound to them forever. There are several methods to obtain new footwear. You can discover shoes in chests or loot them from poachers and other human adversaries. However, if you prefer a more lawful approach, you can purchase shoes from various vendors.
Tailors in places like Troskowitz offer shoes, but they often come with less impressive stats. For better quality, seek out a cobbler. You can find a cobbler in Trosky, identified by a symbol on the map resembling three red pieces arranged in a circle, as illustrated below.

How to Repair Shoes
Screenshot by The EscapistRepairing your shoes in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* can be done in multiple ways. One option is to have cobblers or blacksmiths mend them for you. When speaking to these professionals, select the repair option to access a menu where you can choose which items to fix and see the associated costs. These costs might be reduced if you've invested in the Craftsmanship skill, which offers percentage discounts on NPC repairs for all gear, including shoes and armor.
Alternatively, you can take matters into your own hands and repair your shoes yourself. However, this method depends on your Craftsmanship level; if it's not high enough, you won't be able to repair your own equipment. To proceed with self-repair, you'll need a Cobbler's Kit.
Cobbler's Kits are available for purchase from numerous vendors, including cobblers and blacksmiths, and can also be found in chests or looted from NPCs. To use a Cobbler's Kit, access your inventory, locate the kit, and press the interact button ('E' on PC). This opens a menu displaying your damaged items that can be repaired with the kit. Items that appear faded are beyond your current skill level to repair. Select the items you wish to fix and use the interact button once more to complete the repair.
This guide covers the essentials of acquiring and repairing shoes in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. For repairing other gear items like armor, follow a similar process using a Blacksmith's Kit. Remember, maintaining your equipment in good condition is crucial for a seamless gaming experience.
