Input needed on boots.
« on: May 29, 2015, 03:02 PM »
I am still trying to decide what direction I want to take with my suit and have been reading a lot of the threads here for ideas and helpful information. In one of my link surfing sessions today when reading about boots I came across the most awesome pair of boots and I keep going back to them. I was hoping to get some input to see other peoples thoughts on these (I was unsure about the spikes and didn't have much luck searching for the answer I needed) and to see if they will work for my suit or not? Although if not I still think I need them either way  :)

So long as there's no visible zippers or laces, it's generally acceptable.  The spikes could go either way, but I'd honestly be concerned about you not being allowed to wear these boots at a con because of the spikes.  Some locations are pretty strict on that kind of thing, from what I saw about someone who wore a spiked shoulder bell as part of their kit.

I'd agree that you need those boots one way or the other, Stasi.  They're awesome!  But I'm pretty punk, so I'm biased.  Kebii's right, though, in that you may have an issue with them at some cons.

As mentioned above, boots need to be clear of laces or brand logos/names (these can be covered), and zippers should be on the inseam and the same color as the material.

I think most cons will let you in with those boots, but sometimes that may be dependent on how strict the weapons/costume policy is at an event, and the zeal of the person(s) you encounter at the turnstile in enforcing said policy.
