I remember sitting in front of the TV sculpting the flaps over the top of some prototype boots we bought from Charlie flatt. It was quite easy to do even with my limited sculpting ability. The indents on the side were just where I squeezed my thumb and forefinger together. After molding, casting, and wet sanding until I didn't have any fingerprints, Dave and I were quite happy with the results. Dave and I were quite fond of the pirate and cowboy gear and had big dreams of creating as many options as possible to build some fun figures. Bouncing ideas back and forth, we were able to put alot of subtle nuances into the parts and pieces that had an old skool feel, while also updating and pushing the design a bit. It's good to see after several years to see projects you've worked on still being appreciated.Comment

It's too bad you can't commission another set of molds for these. I loved the look of them, and I was ticked off at myself for not buying more of them. I was also ticked off at how you boys were robbed by that jerk.
I hope that we see these again at some point down the road.JediJaidaComment

That's a shame. Those boots didn't split under pressure and were very sturdy.JediJaidaComment
