The Roman soldier did not wear sandals--he wore the military boot or caliga. However in pictures the caliga may resemble a type of sandal. It was made of multistraps of leather with a thick leather sole. The sole of the boot was hobnailed and the nailing patterns gave support to the ball, arch and heel of the foot, just as modern athletic shoes do.
