Definition of "calceus" in İngilizce

noun

1. A kind of low leather Roman boot or hightop shoe.

   • In comparison with the soccus and the solea, the calceus was a more formal footwear. We do not not usually find it in scenes of private life... We never find it with banquets, where the soccus and the solea prevail. It was probably only put on when leaving the house or, in the case of men, when receiving guests in a formal manner.
