Captain McCool Posted June 5, 2010 Posted June 5, 2010 Thos look pretty cool. I just wish they'd list a size on them.

captscurvy_nc Posted June 6, 2010 Posted June 6, 2010 same for me. I had to have my boots made special but they turned out great. Durango work boots make for a great conversion and Wal Mart has started carrying them again.
Capn Bloody Sam Rackham Posted June 6, 2010 Posted June 6, 2010 And how might one go about convertin' those Durango boots?

captscurvy_nc Posted June 6, 2010 Posted June 6, 2010 The durango boots have a very easy seam to follow about three inches above the back of the boot. I took a basic pattern for bucket boot spats and converted it to attach to the boots. The leather is easy to match up in weight and the stiching was easy. Had them since 1998 and there still in great shape
captscurvy_nc Posted June 6, 2010 Posted June 6, 2010 I remember where I got the pattern from now. It was in the No Quarter Given's Pirate Primer book. There is a bucket boot pattern in the costume section
