I think i might be able to find boots like her around fall b/c that's when boots are in, so I'm gonna stay on the look out...but, I was wondering if anyone maybe knows anywhere online I could fine a pair of boots similar to hers?? I just bought a pair from WalMart actaully, they don't look much like hers AT ALL...but I decided to buy them and if I cant find anything remotely more similar I will use them as a last resort...LOL Here are my nasty boots...haha they are more for winter -_-''

I know Ebay had a pair similar to Yuffie's a while ago except they all had weird lil imprints on them....Anyway...I'm not a big fan of buying online, so if anyone knows of a store they have seen similar Yuffie boots in, that would be great, but if worse comes to worse i will try and buy online...hic hic...Thanks in advance!!

hey you know every time i see yuffies boots they remind me of Converse shoes.

mabey you could find a simular colored fabric and attatch it to the shoes, if you tried that you would need to buy an eylet kit(thats the metal thingies that the laces go through)

sorry if this doesnt help but thats all i got.

They do make "knee-high" converse shoes, however they look like they'd only go to about your mid-calf. I found some on ebay that are sort of the right color.

Tan
White
More white

There's also these but they're black and expensive (Although they do come in a bunch of different sizes and are the right height).

Click

I'd keep an eye out for "Knee High/Hi Chucks/Converse/Sneakers" or "Sneaker/Converse Boots." Sadly I don't know a specific store you could visit to buy some, since you can't really tell what they have in-stock without going there yourself.

Or you could always make boot covers!

Edit: I found something that's pretty similar looking and cheap. Plus, if you have a Wet Seal near you you could go to the store and buy them:

LOL, yeah they do seem like converse shoes!! Just...in boot form...Knee high boot form...

yeah, shoe covers?? I have tried that with other costumes and my shoe covers come out horribly!! I am just no good at it, the fabric always falls off and...i dunno, i guess i just dont know how to do it properly??

Thanks for ur help anyway tho!! I appreciate it.

Hmm, yes, those converse shoes dont look knee high... but i suppose they could work as a last resort

Wow, Wet Seal, sadly i dont live in the US, so i cant even go visit the store myself Those boots look rather similar to mine, except mine are more furry...And those do look much more like Yuffies!! LOL

Thanks for your help tho! I suppose if worse comes to worse i will just use the boots i have bought...or perhaps buy those boots over the internet! THanks again!!!

Actually Yuffie's boots are supposed to be converse cuz thats what they are based on really. So its no surprise that they look similar. I'm Cosplaying Yuffie from FF7 AC and from Dirge for Cerberus and I can't find any boots either. If you go to the converse website http://www.converse.com/ you can actually design your own converse. Unfortunately they didn't have knee high ones but they had the right colour brown almost. They cost around 68$ plus shipping and stuff but they don't ship internationally, so I for one am stuck, but if you live in the USA then go for it.

you peoples posts have been helpful with your posts. im new at the cosplay thing n ill be goin to my first convention the 29. ive actually managed to get almost all of yuffies outfit except the shirt n her shoes. i was wondering if taking a pair of chuck taylor converse n covering them with a tan colored material. does anyone know how i can get a shirt like yuffie's?

you can either find fabric that is remotely close to having the flower pattern on hers, buy a shirt. Or you can do what I did: Make a tube top, create a stencil of the pattern and paint it on. The only downside is that The shirt got washed and the pattern I painted on got washed off too >.< But it is a really easy fix.

Ok as far as the shoes.... get a pair of cheap converse like shoes (tan or white) get some tan fabric and some velcrow or a glue gun (which ever is safer for you)...stick the velcrow/glue up close agianst the white rubber of the shoe and after you made the shape and form of the yuffie shoe then stick it to the shoe. Now the shirt make a stensil but don't use just any paint... use spray paint. tape the stinsel in place and put 2 coats on there. but make sure to put cardboard in the shirt so the paint doesn't leak through. you can get the kahki (I don't think I spelled that right) shorts at walmart..target...or ross for cheap. as far as the jacket and the thing she wears around her hip...I'm not sure. you might have to buy it. ok there you go.. enjoy.
