Cosplay Shoes Tutorial not

So... this isn't really a tutorial, so much as an explanation of what I've done for my first adventure in making/editing cosplay shoes.

I used an old pair of converse shoes for Neku (TWEWY), that I know I won't wear for anything else. They were also the only right shape and height to work with.
It was frustrating at first to work with this, since not only do I have to make one shoe, I had to make two... Identical. UGH. I hate identical things. However, surprisingly, it wasn't too hard once I got the first shoe done- and was able to get my hands on my hot glue gun.

I don't expect anyone to follow it as a tutorial... But I did spend a lot of the last 2 nights reading various cosplay shoe and boot cover tutorials and none of them really did what I wanted- which was make a cover that I can slip onto the shoe that can be removed. All of them involved gluing to the shoe. I bit the bullet and glued the fabric to my shoes, only because I don't wear the converse for anything.
