Description ... in other words Sora shoes!

These were probably the hardest thing to make about this cosplay. So much time and fabric believe it or not and not to mention tonnes of hot glue. The shoes took me about 2 weeks to construct minus my planning stages. I had to think about how in the world I would shape and build a shoe so creatively made as Sora's. I did not use any tutorial, just a lot of reference pictures.

I started with a base of a size 11 in men's mountain boot and slowly built on from there. Using felt, stuffing, 2 zippers, paint, hot glue, fabric and belt buckles on the straps. This is my final result, which I am very glad how they turned out ^^

They are fun to wear out in public xD People give the most strangest looks.

Nice job! ^_^ I love wearing my Sora shoes as well! I was lucky enough to have real awesome starter shoes to just have to glue the fabric on

*hugs* Sora's shoes are fjaghieirhgioerhg;k CRAZY! I know how you feel I spent 6 hours on mine [link] I wish I could have gotten the awesome soles like yours >.< (I'm not trying to spam, you don't have to look if you don't want to) I really like your cosplay! You are the only other person I know who made 2 pairs of pants for Sora's pants! That makes me super happy~! (see, I did it too XD [link] ) Good job~!
