Oh man that's a bummer about the troop. I am not sure how long my lightsaber lasts as I have not taken it out on a troop yet. I really, really like the crowprops boots. Yes, I know they are on the upper end of price. I been out for 6 troops now and the longest I was on my feet with them was 6 hours so far. Great and comfortable. I did make mention I was going to need insoles as like 95% of my shoes I end up doing just that. They sent me some that was the exact cut of the boot. I felt if I was spending money on the costume, the last place to save a buck was the footwear.

I am not sure. I sent pictures of the boots and back armor also. The hood was a little messed up and I could even tell from the picture, that one of the of rings got tucked in and that I needed to readjust the right side panel to get the rings more spaced out. I went and made sure to order from a verified source to avoid issues. As I wouldnt have been able to make the armor myself. Since I am having issues uploading photos from the home PC and phone. Here is the link I had with extra close ups and also I had included with my WIP thread. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/14nd3PVv0QnaMq7_pwxuGMrYQie_MuW9R?usp=sharing

I been approved. Did need to retake a picture of the hood. I managed to get it proper and was sort of hard to take the picture myself.

I noticed the same things after Mom sent me the pictures. I fixed the velcro on the one side after I got home. Mom wasnt sure where the hood was supposed to be. As I had her fit it. I should had put the gloves on last but didnt. Thank you.

I got help from Mom getting the photos ready. Not entirely sure I have everything done correctly though. Of course Mom was like I dont know if anything is out of place or not.

I was asking around for help with photos. Going to get help from my folk. Since I am going to visit for Father's Day. It's like a 2 hour drive but hey at least I can get the photos and get it already for submission later.

I think I have the costume set up now. I am just trying to get help with taking the photos as I cant really do it myself. One guy told me to get a professional photographer and I figured that was way too much. To get the required photos.

I didn't take pictures of the gloves, pants and balaclava. As I felt the balaclava is just that and I ordered it in black. The gloves are from etsy as the medieval costume gloves, also in black. Pants are just plain bkack dress pants I found at goodwill with the tags still on. Waiting for the shipping to update now. I was having problems with photos uploading. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/14nd3PVv0QnaMq7_pwxuGMrYQie_MuW9R?usp=sharing

I need to get and take photos of what I have received so far this costume. Since the parts I been waiting for from Wicked Armor has been finished and been shipped to me. Oh I feel like its Christmas now haha.

I decided to get the Crowprops Revan boots made. As I normally have all sorts of issues with boots. Figured ones fitted to me, will solve that. I also normally have to use inserts and gel inserts in my shoes. I made mention of that to sales and I was pleasantly surprised they also included inserts with the order. I felt that was a neat touch. I have only tried them on and took a some practice walks around the house with them. Waiting for the rest of the costume and looking forward to going out with it.

I am waiting for my order from Wicked. Should be finishing up soon. I am very pleased with the boots from Crowprops.

I have my boots in from Crowprops. I figured since I have issues with boots normally, chaffing the back of my heels and or not fitting right. I will invest in something that will fit me well. I tried them on and was pleasantly surprised how well they fit. First time ever actually having footwear sized to me. I mentioned to sales I would most likely need to place inserts in the boots. They also provided me a pair of inserts that were cut exactly as needed. Now just waiting for the rest of the costume from Wicked Armor.

I need to take pictures of the boots. I missed the delivery on Monday by minutes, but got it sorted out and received Tuesday. I am really impressed. I tried the boots on, and they felt snug and correct. I can't comment on how comfortable they will be standing for long periods of time or walking yet though. I did make mention to the sales team I would most likely need to use inserts in the boots. As I end up having to do this with nearly all the shoes I buy. I was pleasantly surprised they provided inserts for the boots, and also cut to fit. They do have a zipper up the back and that is covered by a fold over leather strip that has velcro attached to hide the zipper. I know I paid more for them but footwear is something that I feel is bad to try and go cheap on.

My boots from Crowprops shipped yesterday. I ordered at the beginning of the month. Took around 2 weeks or so. I was planning on taking pictures of them and noting the fit in my WIP thread. I can keep you posted if you like. This is the first time I will ever have had footwear actually made to my measurements before. I am hoping it will fix the issues I normally have with boots not fitting right and chaffing the back of my heels.

Oh I am sorry. I forgot to add that information. I got it from Intrepid Dawn. I ordered it from Etsy.
