Okay, I don't plan on making these any time soon, if ever, but they would be great for period constumes. Plus, they're kinda cute.
You'd have to wear thick socks though, they look a little rough inside.

Oh man... Gotta have a pair of those. Hobby Lobby is a quick stop on my way home. Gotta buy some leather and try these.

Awesome! So if TSHTF, I guess I know what I'll be wearing on my feet. If I have enough leather on hand . . .

Heck, If TSHTF I'll cut up my sofa and make shoes for the whole family!!! I wonder if you could use a suede for more of a Moccasin type feel?

How fun!!
