Victorian ants wore six-button black boots: that is *thirty-six* buttons to do up just to get ready to go out.@futurebird There is a local mystery over the origin of some 200 Victorian boots that have been found washed up on a Welsh beach not far from me over the past week (adding to a similar number found over the course of recent years).
The current leading theory is that they have been released from one of the many shipwrecks that lie on and around the notorious Tusker Rock a few miles from the beach in question (a fascinating spot to kayak to on calmer days).
I don't think ant involvement is currently being considered, but they do note that many of the boots are rather small
