Hello Sir! Quick noob question but where did you get your toe cap, heel guard and shin guard from? They look as authentic as hell.

Gunhead,
The links that Rolandblais posted should be very helpful. My heels and toes were from a vendor named Lee Fields on the British FB group.

Thanks Folks! A-trolling we will go!!!

Now that its been a little while, how has the glue held up for the toes and the heels?

 

[Nick Anzalone]

Fantastic...truly have an eye for detail.

A quick question. How have the soles held up? Have they held firm or have they needed to be glued again?

 

[SnarkyArts]

Sorry for the late response (I don't check this thread too often).
The glue has held up incredibly well. I've done several session where I walk around in them to break them in and the only place I needed any extra attention was a small spot on the left shift guard where the boot just happens bend a bit too far when walking. (that spot a few inches back from the toes where our shoes always get creases from use). Everything else is rock solid!

Thanks for the response. I really need to get my boots finished as i'm approaching the end of my build.
