Description

Something that has been needed to be done for some bit that keeps yelling at me with every rock and puddle I step in. While I initially thought about giving Scout silicone pads, I like having the ability to slide around on slick smooth floors far more so I made sock paws knowing some time I would need to make a pair of these as well.

I browsed through the styles and really started disliking the look of the strap in between the toe or toes. Seems that's all I could find until I stumbled across a tutorial way back from 2006 by Matrices and modified it ever so slightly. overall in rough materials it cost me about $15 to make these? The fatigue mat was $40, but seeing as I can buy that stuff in small quantities for much less, that's the price I"m going off of. With my thumb hurting I couldn't operate my rivet gun well so I was overjoyed to see her tut. didn't require one.

Needing to protect your own feet? I won't take these on commission, but you can find the tutorial here! [link]

So, I know this is an old post, but I need to construct sandals for a pair of indoor feet I commissioned. While they're being made I'm looking into new construction methods. My question is, do the fronts of such sandals without toe straps fold under the feet? That's usually my main issue when making sandals before, since I kind of shuffle when I walk, so the fronts get caught on everything. I'd prefer not to use toe straps myself, since my feetpaws will be three toed, so I'd need two toe straps since there's no middle inset. Any advice you could give would be greatly appreciated ^^
