but cheap white boots, cut them up, take off the heel, buy a couple of leather dog collars and cut them in half to use for straps... (unless you want to use black elastic, but i think the long-fall boots that chell was wearing had leather straps) sew on another white (leather?) peice to make the "heel rand" then either

1. under the heel rand, put black cloth, or

2. color it black with paint, sharpie (not as good), or spray paint (preffered)



as for the velocity challenge brace, you're on your own... maybe you can happen to come across a random piece of hard plastic for that. i dont know how to make it or what to make it from.



anyway, hope this works.
