Sole color

[Tjeccles]

Are these the right color? They're Kingshow Wheat soles off Amazon. They seem darker compared to the other photos on here.

They should be one solid wheat color and those are two tone. You can also paint the sole wheat color of the boots are a good price.

What's the best way to paint the sole? And what's the best paint to use?

Get a cheap brush and some acrylic paints from Wal Mart or Michael's. You have to use acrylics or the paint will chip and crack off. Do about 3-4 coats, letting each dry before starting a new one.

 

I also used king shoe boots for my build, but mine weren't two tone -- I used "wheat 1510" -- what kind did you get?

[Tjeccles]

Wheat 1801. That's what Amazon had in my size

These are the ones I use. A lot of us around here have them. Thes sole is a single color and super easy to add the notches to the heels. Very well priced also.

I believe so. Let me double check when I get home. I'll let you know.

Thanks

I did have to go up half a size. I wear a 10.5 us and went up to a size 11. Hope this helps.

Thanks. Only issue is very few manufacturers make 1/2 sizes past 12
