Han Solo Boots (help!!)

[generalvenduu]

I’ve been looking through everything and really haven’t found a definitive specific place I didn’t look on eBay to find some decent boots but I can actually use and not have some junky rubber thing.
Has anyone possibly ever purchased from SovietBoots.com?
I purchased a pair of regular officer from Hessen Antique but my calves won’t get into those ones...
I am trying not to end up dropping $500+ for a costume...so...help?

Magnoli’s boots are absolutely amazing! I have a pair for myself, and if they could make a wider top for you I would definitely get in on a pair!

Is my mind playing tricks on me or are those the same picture?

I love Indy's products, so I'd probably go with that. What is the product quality of Todd's Costumes?

I'd say it varies. Mostly excellent, but the pants belt I bought from him was terrible. The three rows of holes were misaligned and too tightly vertically spaced. Looks like it was done by hand with a leather punch. Which would be fine, if the holes were correctly spaced and aligned.

My gun belt is beautiful, however, and the vest is great as well.

He sells a great replica Hensoldt, though I've never seen any of his blaster parts in person.

I always find it humorous how a "hand made" product can have two totally different outcomes: exceptionally great, or exceptionally awful, haha.
Thank for you the info, it is helpful.

I own a pair of Todd's boots. I wear a size 11 but got a size 12 for the larger calf opening. My calves are 17 inches in circumference, however, the opening was still too small. I actually found a local cobbler who was able to open up the back seam and widen the boots out. They are great now but I do need to wear inserts to take up the extra space in the toes. He also shaved the tops so they are straight across rather than curved. I also have Todd's gun belt and I've been happy with it.
