Members Phil2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Members Report Posted December 5, 2011 Hi! Several years ago I made a pair of UGG-inspired tall boots for my girlfriend. Here are some pics: First, I apologize for the low quality of these pics: at this time I didn't own a digital camera, so I had to scan my paper pics... Well, to make boots that look like UGGs, I first bought a pair of fake UGGs. So, very cheap boots! ;-) I drew marks every inch along the assembling lines. Then, I dismantled a boot by cutting the stitches. I placed the different parts on cardboard, I drew the outlines on the cardboards as well as the marks. I cut out the cardboard patterns and I used them to draw the outlines and marks on sheepskin. Along all the assembling lines I cut out the wool, so it was easy to assemble with glue. Last but not least, I stitched by hand with Campbell's linen thread. This represents a lot of hours stitching, as you can imagine!.. The foot and the leg are made of sheepskin. The sole is made of thin and very soft light gray suede. I added a removable padded sheepskin insole. The total height of the boot is 15 inch (38cm) and the size is womens 6US (37EUR). I made these boots for my girlfriend because she loves UGG boots and she wished she could have a very soft pair, with soft leather sole, to wear at home only. Quote
