Why did Welsh mercenary bowmen in the medieval period wear one shoe at a time?
That's actually a bit of a misconception, the Welsh on the whole were depicted in manuscripts and drawings of the time as wearing one shoe, but this is not necessarily what th…ey actually wore. Some speculated that the one shoe was to enable the Welsh to walk on hill sides, but that seems a little odd, especiallly as Wales is not one big range of hills - We do have at least some flat ground. It seems more likely that they were drawn this way to indicate wealth - The Welsh were generally not that well off, but not completely destitute, so there became a sort of key showing wealth with the poorest having no shoes, while the rich could afford them. As the Welsh were sort of on the middle ground, they were often shown with one shoe to indicate their 'mediocrity'. Bear in mind as well, that the manuscripts were written at the time, generally for people of the time, and the illustrations were usually not intended to be historical commentaries, rather they were to put forward a general idea so attention to detail was not as important as people assume.
