I have special feet and these are my new special boots. And they're awesome!

Special needs boots

It took the shoemaker over 6 months to make them, but they're perfect. Someone's gonna be hiking everywhere soon 🙂

Yes, I know, they're just shoes. But they're something special to me. Today is a good day!

Nice. I was thinking of like sheets of paper with the outline of each pane of the shoe, but you have the whole 3D model! =D Must be rewarding using your skills to solve your own problem like that. Thank you for sharing. Enjoy your hikes!
