Guest Omegaclone Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Would these boots be the right color? I know they are on the expensive side but I'm flat footed and need wide size boots. I work at a rubber plant and wear steel toe boots all day every day for 12 hours a day so I'm not worried about weight or effort to wear them while Trooping. Here's a link to amazon with more photos. http://www.amazon.com/Timberland-PRO-Direct-Attach-Steel/dp/B000XEOG7Q Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 They're OK... They're not the best... Ideally you need to look for a pair that don't have the two-tone sole which the one above has. If you did go for that set, you would need to paint out the sole so it's all one colour. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chef Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 We've discussed in another thread, that whilst the Imperial Boots offering, is nice. There are a number of design issues that may prevent them being cleared at basic level, depending on your individual GML, and they certainly WILL NOT get you clearance at Lancer spec. Caveat Emptor is the watch word. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4505Marcel Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Agreed I wouldn't recommend these boots, the boots made to the tutorial are much nice, more accurate and cheaper to buy. As nice as they are, they just don't have the correct feel about them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhongvador Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Marcel, As a boots maker your opinion can not be objective. Why should you let another competitor get in the bussiness? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4505Marcel Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Not really sure what your asking bro... Why should you let another competitor get in the business? We have lots of troopers making boots on here, for other troopers, I'm not the only one??? everyone is free to offer items, as long as sales are genuine and our troopers are treated properly, good delivery times ect. And you say as a boot maker your opinion can not be objective? I make boots yes, but first and fore most I'm staff, and as staff I need to point out inaccuracies. I'm assuming these are your boots advertised? When I said they don't have the right feel, the soles are two toned, they really need to be a single colour, they also do not have the cut heel detail. The construction is obviously done differently, film boots were just standard sneaker/boots and re covered. That feel is gone with a custom made boot, they are almost to clean in design if that makes sense. I just feel that boots made to the tutorial are more accurate and have the right feel and would meet the Lancer levels, I'm sorry if that offends dude. I just feel maybe the design could be tweaked for a more accurate looking boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost11c Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 looking at making my boots too how about these? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rhino-51C16-Green-Trail-Suede-Desert-Boots-Mens-Leather-Cushioned-Work-Shoes-Tan-/221161185026?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=520126736843&hash=item337e3bdf02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dart Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 looking at making my boots too how about these? http://www.ebay.com/...=item337e3bdf02 Those actually look pretty good. The sole has a good colour and shape and the boot itself is nicely shaped. Good find. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
