This is an excellent tutorial. Thank you!Β
Can you tell me how long they lasted? Did they fall apart quickly? Can you run with them? I'm using your tutorial to make a pair for my son.
Thank you!

I'm happy you find it useful!
The only thing about them that didn't last for very long was at the tips of the shoes (the snout?) because the fabric was glued to a plastic sole. I made a pair later for my new Link cosplay and I got some soft fabric shoes from H&M (just some cheep shoes with fabric and no plastic on the snout.) Then instead of gluing the fabric I sew it only the shoes. They still haven't fallen apart a single bit and I can walk, sit and run in them ^^
I hope it made sense XD otherwise please do not hesitate to ask!

AAAAAHHH Thank you so much! I'm going to cosplay as dark link, and I was going to by some uggs or other boots or something but they're FRIGGIN EXPENSIVE. So, all I need to do for these is buy some black material and viola!

it's a very cool tutorial!
Could you stitch/ew the parts onto the shoe instead of gluing them?

I guess you could! Depends on which machine you're using. And of course it also depends on which material the inner/skeleton-shoe is made from. It it's just some light fabrics, then yea, I think you can stitch the boot cover to it :3
If you find a solution for it, I'd be happy to see it

This is very helpful. Thank you. I have a question about the sneaker, i see that the shoe laces are taken out, so how do you make the boot tight, so it doesn't fall or slip off?
π: 0 β©: 1
Well actually they feel a little loose when I wear them but I put some glue in the holes where the laces would go and then I glued the shoe together but it's pretty hard to get on because the fabric covers the area where you usually grab the shoe if you have trouble putting it on so I suggest you find some shoes that are not too loose and then don't glue it. The fabric will keep your foot in place anyway
I'm very glad I could help ^^

"I never made boots before so I guess they turned out OK"?!
WHAT are you talking about?! These are PERFECT!!! 8D

nifty. And this technique I'm sure could be tweaked to make other character boots.
