Boots for the Larger of us?

Post by Rosien_HoH »

I need boots for my costume, as well as for my Han Solo costume. But, I have big feet. It has been an impossible task to find proper boots.

Does anyone have any ideas about this?

Like you, I have difficulty finding footwear at the best of times (never mind for costumes), short of going to the expensive custom boot option.... I have found options to be limited, but for a guard with larger feet, the best option right now is to go with a black officer style boot. There are various options available that conform to this look (jack boots, plain black round toe cowboy boots, etc.) Have a look around and see what you can find locally. Don't be affraid to post pictures and ask for opinions on what might work. We are here to help as best we can :)
