Box Spurs for Military or Cavalry Use
Box spurs date back to the wearing of overalls by the army. Not all military spurs were box spurs, sometimes hunting or jack spurs were worn (particularly by the Life Guards & Horse Guards). As breeches and boots were introduced to the cavalry uniform, the box spur became part of mess dress. (Ref : "History of the Spur", Charles de Lacy Lacy)
