[MR] List Field Appearance policy query

[David Ritterskamp]

Per the Marshallate website:

Leather or leather-look boots, in a color consistent with period practice 
are acceptable. This includes standard leather combat boots, but would 
exclude leather/nylon boots.

What about black ankle-height cleats?  If they're higher than ankle height 
does that make them okay?

Also:

A modern (e.g. plastic materials, modern sports equipment) component may be 
used if it is hidden from view, by covering it with opaque covering 
materials not made of plastic, including but not strictly limited to; 
leather, metal, textiles with a period appearance and, where appropriate, 
stone or wood. Tapes, paints, stains, dyes, foils, films, transparent or 
translucent materials and any other inadequate or insubstantial coverings 
shall not be deemed an acceptable covering material.


I was originally given to understand that metal-colored paint was an 
acceptable covering material.  I also heard a rumor that black ABS would be 
excluded since it doesn't really stand out from a distance of 10'.

Can somebody in a position to make a definitive answer give a definitive 
answer?

Regards,

Jonathan Blackbow



There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, 
or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction 
of a new order of things.
