  • DIY: Leather Over-The-Knee Boot Spats

























    . . . and with the ties






    {leather not as shiny in reality}

    See this post for inspiration


    Other possible closure options if you don't have a sewing machine {or even if you do}
    * Velcro {stick on or hand stitch on}
    * Elastic -this will work also if you don't have enough leather. {Use a solid piece in the back for a more fitted look or thin horizontal strips all the way down the back}
    * Eyelets/Lace-up
    * Hooks/Lace-up
    * Buckles

    Wearing options
    * Fold over the top and show the suede side.
    * More ties or one long leather strip -criss-crossed all the way {like the Chloe's or Rodarte's} I actually would have preferred this but I only had enough leather left to make two for each side.
    * With flats
    * Over jeans/leggings

    Do you like the over-the-knee boot look? Would you make these yourself?
