Shadow Guard boots

Post by Force Crush »

Good morning everyone! I'm interested on buying some Shadow Guard boots. Where can I can get leather boots for the Shadow Guard? I was going to buy some leather boots in order to get the necessary requirements to get the 501st certification. :shadow:

These are Funtasma Captain Boots. They are a reasonably priced boot that can be used for the costume. They run in various sizes. I recommend going one size larger than your actual shoe size as the way the boot toe is made can be cramp.

The requirements for the Shadow Guard's boot is that they can't have zippers on the inside? What about in the back of the boot?

We discussed it and like to say that a boot with Zipper is acceptable as Long as it Looks like the descibed boot and the Zipper will be covered with a stripe of the same leather the boot is made of. Thus making the Zipper "invisible".

Ok. I was looking for information about the boot requiremental. I'll try to buy some leather ones, specifically the equestrian. But in think the Funtasma ones will work fine. Thanks for the information. I'll keep it mind before buying them.
