About Leather Boots
Leather Boots are the most basic foot armor in the game. They provide 1 armor point and have 65 durability, so they will not protect you for long against strong mobs, but they are cheap to craft and easy to replace.
Their real advantage is dyeing. Like other leather armor, you can recolor them in a crafting grid with any dye, which makes them popular for cosmetic outfits and roleplay builds.
How to get Leather Boots
You can craft Leather Boots from four pieces of leather. Arrange the leather in the crafting grid so the top two slots of the left and right columns are filled, leaving the middle column empty. Leather comes from cows, horses, llamas, and other animals.
If you do not want to craft them, some leatherworker villagers sell boots as part of their trades.
