Just The Right Shoe [tm]: adaptable?

[modernwizard]

I've seen Just The Right Shoe shoe sculptures in tchotchke shops. The designs have attracted me, but the fact that there is only ONE shoe has annoyed me. However, now that I see that they are 4 inches long, I think that there might be an actual use for these frustrating collectibles. You see...4 inches = 10.16 cm, which is about 2 cm longer than Sabik's feets [8.3 cm] and generally about 1:3. Perhaps it is possible to modify some of these JTRSs into fabulous footwear for my dolls...namely WIll, for whom I cannot find a decent pair of atrocious heels to save my life... JTRSs sold here.

Fete miniature shoes are sold through Amazon.

Disco sandal keychains...?

High-heeled pump keychains...?

And these...oh, these...are the ultimate in coolness: Disco Diva JTRSs. Cheap here.

Hum. Even having to buy two, they're still slightly cheaper than most BJD shoes, depending on style, and far more wide-ranging. Now the real question is: are they straights, or is it all left shoes?

Some of the slipper styles may be undifferentiated, but most are just...the right shoe. But, if I can find a shoe that isn't greatly differentiated, I may ignore the difference, assuming this idea even works...

I can be incredibly dense. :B Wonder how responsive the company would be to requests for pairs? There are more big-footed dolls than just BJDs out there.

Aren't JTRS made of resin? That may make it tough to put on a foot (the solid resin foot would possibly defeat the spindly resin shoe straps) Still, I understand the desire for shoooooozzzz.....

I'm looking at some JTRSs that have fully enclosed top parts [a la Disco Diva], and I'm thinking of modifying these [somehow] to create bootfeet.

Hmm...I wonder if you could get a cheap pair of feet, carve them out to fit into the top of the shoe, epoxy 'em in place, then attach those as normal? 'course, that'd rev up the cost...
