Greetings Uni Hawk...
Welcome to the Jedi Assembly....
lol....Jedi costumes are NEVER done.....I started mine in 1999....and am still "working" on it....
Boots indeed are a problematic....
Good leather boots can be pricey
They REALLY need to fit
and they need to look "Star Wars".....
Check out our boot thread....
I found my boots on e-bay....they looked good in the photo...very plain...with lots of possibilities....I sent the seller an e-mail and asked for measurements...like the width at the calf, length from heel to toe and width at ball of foot....using the measurements he sent me, I determined that they would fit...and fit they do! Don't go by size......
then when I got my boots...I took them to a local leatherworker to make them "Star Wars"....total cost...
Boots on e-bay: $26.00
Leatherworker: $60.00
Completed look: Priceless.....I LOVE them
Anyway....welcome again....
and welcome to the Midwest Order....
;D
