Andy, The stencils are here if you need them. :) I'm a size 11and 1/2 and I used a size 12 shoe. Let me know if you need any help on a pair. I would be more than happy to help out.

I have my order placed for my armour, so I know I will need some help soon. :D

Here are the last photos of my completed clone shoes. I am waiting for my straps and I am keeping my fingers crossed that they will cover the snaps I installed to hold down the fabric. Next step finish everything else and troop in these boots to see what falls off. :P

I used velcro for the tongue closure and it seems to be working well. I used it on both sides, but I may glue down the outside in order to make them look a bit cleaner. I realy only need an access point on one side to get them on my feet.

I installed a button snap and a elastic fabric to help hold up the excess vinyl.

I am not a model, but here you go! :grinno:

Last but not least the finished product with out the straps installed yet.

Thanks for following the build and good trooping everyone.

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.

The clone shoes are now done. THX to a friend for the last piece to the puzzle they turned out great. Nothing left to do but weather them and wear them. The straps are velcroed on for now in order to fit them to my armour that's soon to be here.

Good Trooping

I was wondering if you still might have the templates for the clone shoes you made because they looks really great and i was thinking of making a pair for myself
