Again I'm cheating, the leather robed biker jedi strikes again! I'm usinf a pair of black Engineer style motorcycle boots, that come halfway to my knee, and buckle at the top, which I also use for the SCA, work, and boots to just bomb around in(mostly because I can't stand laces they always come undone on me) they might not be extremely accurate, but they'll work for now, maybe by CIII I'll have bought a pair of higher boots, but since I'm a post Endor Jedi, I'm not required to dress excatly like the Old Republic Jedi

Once again...while staring at all the Jedi action figures on my desk....all the boots are different ..... like you noted....all the ones on my desk are Old Republic Jedi and all the boots are brown... however...Luke wore black boots in ROTJ...

Jade, I just ran a status check on my boots and they got to Miami last night. I'll keep checking. I liked the Galli boots because they are very verstile and I can wear them for other things. I just pray to the force that I measured my feet right. Everyone that has ordered them says that they are very comfortable and worth the price...I'll let you know. Now if my light saber and jedi belt would get here....lol I hope to have my costume complete for Volkon.

Well, Cris is kind of a maverik jedi, he left luke's Jedi Academy after the Kyp Durren scandle, and went out on his own. He based his robes (loosly) on Corran Horn's because they are supposedly the correlian jedi uniform, and eventually trained himself into Jedi Knight status, when Luke saddled him with his apprentice Blaine. His Jedi uniform is a pair of black biker style boots, a leather looking outer cloak, black pants and a combination Hunter green and lighter green tunic and obi so the leatehr robed biker Jedi. Oh and biker because of his main mode of transportation is a swoop

Xana.....Volkon is a Con in Orlando. Here is the site. When you click on it, Click on the purple HOME box then it will take you to a Teal colored page. SELECT A CITY.......Orlando November 2002. That will take you to the site of events. This is the first time there for me and I am excited. There are going to be guys there from the Rebel Legion and the 501st also. I hope my costume is finished by then........ www.vulkon.com/upcoming.htm

Once again...I am in a frenzy.... is there news out there on Celebration III?
I am heading to Film Con in November in Madison, WI...the theme is Star Wars...they have a costume contest, room party contest....and best of all.... a guy who is giving lightsaber training! Can't wait...as far as other conventions...unless I get a raise, I doubt that there are too many in my future....I do plan on Celebration III and our own Assembly of the Assembly...

I need some news for CIII too. I got on-line and pulled up the site for CII and picked a hotel. Then I checked on flights and picked one of those too. I can't find anything on-line yet.

Jade....Well, my boots are here and they are beautiful!!!!!! Except that they are two sizes to big....LOL. It was their mistake. I remeasured my feet and legs and checked it with my paperwork and I get the same measurements. When I measured the boots they are a size 12....I wear a size ten...LOL...I have packed them back up and I'll be sending them back tomorrow...... I guess I am the one in a million!!!! But seeing them only makes me want a pair more....They are really beautiful.......

Well, I heard from the boot company and they apologized for the mistake. I'll be sending them back with tracings of my feet and another set of measurements and they will fix them. I can't wait. I really like them.

I have that boot site in my favorites and go back to drool every one in a while.... Bummer...you have to wait again....
How long did the first pair take to get to you?
Ordering stuff on line is a good way to practice Jedi patience! I had ordered my belt in July and did not get it until last week...and it is too big...but I think I may have ordered a little big thinking I could adjust down the size...it does have adjustments...but not enough to fit right...oh well...should fit a little better with the tabbard and sash on.
