In ancient Rome professional fighters called Gladiators would battle, sometimes to the death, with animals, each other or convicted criminals, this was often done bare footed. In the arenas spectators would gather together and watch the games and cheer on their favorite Gladiator. To the Romans gladiatorial combat was entertainment or ceremonies that sometimes lasted for days and involved other attractions such as music, food and attractions. The last documented gladiatorial event took place in 404AD.
The one item of the Gladiator era that we are glad to see around today is the Gladiator sandal. By definition the gladiator sandal is a flat sandal that has several straps across the top holding the sole to the foot and a strap around the ankle. This sandal worn by the professional fighters was brought back to fashion in the late 1960s and now in 2008 it is making a comeback. When you look at the fashion magazines you will see the celebrities with different variations of the sandal, Gladiator sandals low heels, high heel and flats. The heel height is not the only difference; the ankle strap can go up your leg as high as the knee. The materials for making the sandal is not just plain brown leather as originally, you will find fabric, pleather, patent, any in color that you can imagine, and decorated with a large variety of embellishments.
