STOMPY BOOT COVERS - PROTOTYPE, READY TO WEAR

These are the first boot covers I made from this sculpt! They work but are not perfect- they were sculpted to fit over a pair of fugu boots aka japanese construction worker boots. I wear a womens 10.5/11 men's 9 or 9.5 so these will fit over a similar size and boot style.

Each boot consists of 7 parts- 3 parts make up the main shoe with 4 parts that make up the curved upper segments. Having them cast in parts allows the cover to flex without distorting. There will be some paint scuffing with wear since these are props that will see more abuse than usual! There is a little tearing on one of the panels where i screwed in too close to the edge, i have reinforced the back so it doesnt get damaged further but try to be a bit careful anyway!

This is the first time I have made a boot cover this elaborate and I had to figure out a lot of new stuff! They are not perfect and there might be a better way to do this. A LOT of time and money went into getting casts/molds to work- (14 mold pieces total for a pair of boots) so at this point i just want to recoup the costs for this experiment!

Here you can see the 2" wide elastic on the toe, middle and heel that keep the boots on. You put them over your boot by slipping your booted foot into the covers and stretching the elastic in place. Each cover can flex open thanks to the elastic inside that holds all the cast part together. There is a velcro strap that can further secure the covers once your foot is in ( be sure to open the velcro before trying to insert your foot- pink tape is on the velcro ends)

Each one is lined with foam and helmet padding!

The elastic inside will help you open the boots to slip them on:
