There was another member on here that had made some leather shift boots. I wanted to order some at the time, but did not and now he has not been active on here for a long time, so I decided to try my hand at making my own. A friend of mine cut up her leather pants and made shorts out of them. She gave me one of the legs as raw material.

Taken apart, note how beat up the cheap vinyl boot was:

Used the old boot to pattern the new leather:
