Re: Clone Shoes, Updated!
Ok a quick update on the completed clone shoe build. I decided to remove the velcro from the outside of each shoe and glue them down. Im glad I did it! It's a cleaner look and it made them look 100 times better. So in closing don't velcro the outside just use velcro on the inside.

Re: Clone Shoes
They are really not that bad to work on. The stencil patterns is what took up most of my time and I am sure they are not perfect but they work for me.
