Guest Bubba Kenobi Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 HEy guys looking into boot run I do not like what I see out there. I think the only real accurate way to go is to cast the soles and build to spec for jango, kashyyyk, GM. I have people willing to cast the soles. I am looking for KC pit crew books to cast from I have some in small size but need to borrow others. Please let me know interest and if any one has boots to lend. THis will not happen right away but will happen. I want feed back on sizes and interest, I am thinking size 9 to 13 US in whole sizes or just going full custom but that is a lot of extra cost. Please let me know what you think guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darksaber212 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 In for a pair of size 9's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatshock Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I'm in for a size 10.5-11 which ever is closest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TB-7076 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I'd need two pairs in size 9 (or close) and if possible one pair in size 7. Depending on privce though. There may be 1 or 2 boots more if they're reasonably priced as we're forming a small GM squad in our squad area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
postmortem01 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Is this boot maker located in the US? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Skupilkinson Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 It would be nice if a replica boot could be made. It may cost more but it'd sure solve the problem of trying to find close match boots and the problem of modifying excisting boots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbungle Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 this boot has been a problem. i wish someone would make a new jango/KT/gm boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
postmortem01 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 We might be willing to help with the masters of the soles if someone else will spearhead the actual molding and manufacturing of the boots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Skupilkinson Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I'd be prepared to look into it. Though I'm in the UK which I guess you guys over the pond wouldn't be too keen on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
postmortem01 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Sounds like Bubba Kenobi has already found someone who would be willing to make these. The picture I posted earlier in the thread is what the boots look like in the CG file. I think that these need to be shortened a little and made of softer material higher up to allow the armor to set over top properly. Just my two cents worth...

TB-7076 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 What happened to this initiative? I wonder if anyone ever thought of making masters via rapid protoyping with the help of digitally scanned masters? with enough interest we could stem the costs.

mrbungle Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 sorry, but i do not like to fill people with false hope. so i tell them like it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TB-7076 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 hmm, ok I found a boot today with similar soles and even though the boots are tad too big for me I had to buy them being the last pair in stock. I had o pull them. Once they arrive I'm looking into modifying and casting the sole and look what we can come up with. here are the boots - still a lot to modify though but a good base featuring the typical angled heel and general shape. Let's see what some mould makers and I can do. http://www.madphisto.net/lookalikeboots1.jpg http://www.madphisto.net/lookalikeboots2.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
