There is only one save game per character. This replaced frequently with the autosaves and with the "save and exit." There's no way to go back.
In the future, don't use temporary equipment in an attempt to recover a corpse.
When you die, you leave a corpse that has all the items you had equipped. If you die again, with different equipment, you'll leave another corpse. If you try to pick up a corpse while you don't have enough space for everything (for example, if you're holding temporary equipment), you'll only take some of the equipment and will still leave the corpse.
When you leave the game, only the corpse with the most valuable (in terms of gold sell value) equipment will be saved. The others are gone forever.
So if you just leave the game immediately when you die, your (only) corpse will be in town with all your equipment. But if you try to recover a corpse with temporary equipment, you might have multiple corpses, with your equipment distributed among. If you leave then, you'll lose all but one of them.
As for the boots you described, there's no such thing. You're misremembering.
