in wc3 they didnt but thats because they were poor and couldnt afford anything

when they joined the alliance in wow they started trading with the alliance and finally got enough money to afford dressing properly

its why they lost the bikini armor in vanilla wow and just wore plate

They wear boots. I think the only WC3 unit, besides the hooved races(which aren’t elves) that didn’t were the druids of the claw. Everyone else had foot protection, as seen by… well, the in game models, cinematics, etc.

Well, that’s soldiers, which makes sense. But what about day to day?

Like most groups, it depends on the individual. They seem more shoe adverse than say humans.

Pretty much this.

Who are you replying to? Irenaus?

Yes. The way I set up the reply should have reflected that - but I guess it’s not coming through.

Are you shoe adverse?

I’ve had it with this forum’s pro-shoe agenda

Frankly I already have one foot out the door.

In or out. Don’t clog the doorway.

Don’t rush me, it’s slippery.

Yes they do.

They are mostly in armor, what about the average citizen?

Well, in game most of the NE citizens are in classic leather, but some priestess have naked legs. From the book I only remember one picture where Blizzard painted Night Elves citizens, it was evacuation moment in Stormwind.

-its hard to understand, but it seams that all of them does. But there was another picture in the same book, when half of refugees hadn’t boots.

There was also this game art of Teldrassil. But again, most elves on the picture are Sentinels:

There was also one cutscene of the old Empire days, every elf there in shoes:
