Very happy with how fast and easy these boot covers were to make, and how good they turned out! For an extra special cosplay at GalCon next week...👀

Mine were $3 from the arc. They didn't fit my calves very well so I took off the tops and adjusted them as needed.
This works best with boots that are lacking any bulky details like buttons, and that have a simple zipper closure.
3. Tape over the plastic bags so that it form fits to the boots and your calves. I used packing tape, but beige masking tape will work as well.
-the top and bottom of where you want your boot covers
-zippers
-where you want your seams
-where you want to add any details
5. Cut the plastic off along the marked seams
For these boots I wanted to add length to the top, add a strap detail over the ankle, and add a fold over top for a piratey look
(I thought about adding more straps but didn't, just ignore the extra marks on the plastic)
Make sure to add seam allowance!!!
For anyone who struggles with spacial things here are a couple diagrams to help explain how these pieces go together
