The shape of the stiletto boot feet of Takara and Triad looks a bit bulky to me, here's an easy fix.

Tools and materials needed:
- diamond (or sapphire) nail file
- small Philips ('+'-head) screwdriver
Left: original stiletto boot foot. Right: improved shape. |

| Using the Philips screwdriver, disassemble the foot and put the sole aside.
Sand any raised parting lines between the left and right halves smooth. Sand the front of the foot down a bit so the boot sleeve won't extend beyond the tip of the sole (see also bootfeet modification by AntiPersonnel. Sand the curve at the top of the foot a bit down. With white feet you can check the remaining thickness of the plastic by holding it against a bright light source, if the plastic becomes translucent then there's not much left ! When you're satisfied with the shape, put the foot back together again. The end result should look like the foot on the right on the picture. |
