I found those boots, it you take of the backside they are really great. I painted my soles also black. I just thought I might share this. I guess over in the states they got similar shoes like this? they are really cheap and the quality is okay, great for starters I would think

not available in my size :? would be a cheap alternativ to test these shoes.

Most women's boots aren't available in wide enough sizes or me either. For me, if I ever get red boots, they'll have to be custom made

I actually work on custom made boots for me here in Germany together with a proffesional shoemaker. Well by know it´s an expensive experience, hope the final outcome will satisfy me.
We just have the screenshot pics as reference.

Yes, custom boots are a very expensive proposition... Last time I looked into having some made for me here in Canada, it was approx $400...

The custom red suede boots I had made were $165. They look amazing and come with bragging rights, since my cobbler worked on Slave Leia's boots.
