The Softest Tall Boots Ever?

Recommended Posts

Hi!

10 years ago, I made a pair of soft boots for Corinne, the young woman who was my girlfriend at this time. She had some requirements: she wished the boots were calf-hi or higher, with a very simple design, and as soft as possible. Corinne even said she would enjoy to get "leather socks" that should fit "like a second skin"! So, I bought a very thin and very supple leather, and here is the result:

I also followed Corinne's specific requirement about using the thinnest and softest part of the leather I bought to make the feet and the soles.

Corinne enjoyed to wear her boots with thin socks or barefoot. Size is womens 7.5US (38EUR).

Thank you Suicide! ;)

In France, leather is not sold to the weight but to the surface. So I can't tell you about the weight of this leather. It's cow leather, yes. The thickest part I used to make the legs of the boot is around 1,5mm thick. The thinest part I used to make the feet and the soles is around 1mm thick only!
