Wrydub Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 Alright, here is my first boot build. Go easy on me. I am planning on working on the soles of the boots adding the screen accurate indentations and what not but I wanted to get any constructive criticism I could and see how I did. This is my first time sewing, and over all tailoring anything. I am very pleased with the way they turned out. Thanks
Chex Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 Not too bad. What boots did you use for your base boot?
Wrydub Posted September 10, 2012 Author Posted September 10, 2012 It is a military issue boot my buddy gave me after he came back from Afghanistan.

But they will be just the job mate well done. Did you use heat to stretch the toe covering? I use a heat gun and stretch them around 3-4 times pinning each time to get them tight.
