I just made a pair for my own Jedi boots, before I went to San Diego Comic-Con. I'll try to get some pics taken and put up soon. Mine cover the whole front half of my boot.

I made vinyl ones (with acrylic paint shading) for Anakin that fit over the boot and velcro shut. We may glue some on some day. I did all the stitching on my sewing machine.
I can send you pics through e-mail if you want.

Yeah, scraps left over from the whole side of leather that I went through for a big group holster project.

I made these out of vinyl about a year ago. We needed something quickly to wear over shoes. Now that we have basic brown boots, I may do them over but here's some pics.

I am using stone oiled leather, it is way flexible and lovely to work with. I get mine at the local Tandy, it is a bit pricey, but way worth it... It is also waterproof. My plan is to use a 4 prong punch and stitching awl to finish. Will not get to work much this weekend unfortunatly, these projects always go slower than expected.

I didn't know these are what you were talking about. Like I said we made these a year ago. I would be happy to make you some! I want to at least make a new proto type first.
I made Obi-Wans too. I'll have to take more pics. (Photobucket is brand new to me!)

Hey MomMaster: I couldn't see your link. It didn't work for me. But I'm also looking to buy some Anakin spats. Only mine are for a girl instead of guy's. I'd obviously be willing to pay if your willing to sell.
thanx

You could just copy and paste the link that's what I did, since the image didn't post right, because it's for the album.
But I'll try it because that link was incomplete for a single photo.
I don't know if that's the photo they wanted to diplay, there are several in that album.
