Hmmmm

Boots?

Shipping would be $10-12. They'd be good for a steampunk costume I'd never get to wear....;_; But I could also wear 'em with skirts, right?

....oh the costume I would make if I had the money...

I'd have a brown leather pirate coat and a natural leather custom corset armour thing to wear underneath (with brass fittings), and knickers, and and and....

*sigh*

That said, apart from shoes I could improvise a pretty decent steam punk outfit on pretty short notice, I think. If only there were ever call for it!

My ray gun and goggles for [livejournal.com profile] longpig are coming along quite nicely, I think! I think tomorrow I can spray it to seal it and it should be good to go :o

Boots... they strike me as having overly wide calves, I'd worry whether they would fit. Other than that they are nice, though.

As for the pirate coat.. start saving. That would SO suit you.

the coat is indeed rather epic

Aside from the slits at the top of the sleeves, I'd totally wear that in a modern context.

they lace on! I could just take them off :o

You can also get different kinds of sleeves, but I like those ones.

They look fantastic, but I could see them being a little impractical in heavy rain!
