So… It’s been 3 years and change since I made the original “Ruse in Boots” Wow how time flies! So interesting to read that the big deal with these boots was it was my first item I made all by myself without any help which is a luxury I have forgotten now that I’ve been making stuff solo for so long. Anyways polishing this cosmetic up was really fun. Spy boots are kinda tricky because you have to deal with a visual cankle effect caused by covering up the spy’s flared pant legs. I applied a trick that I tried with success on another spy boot cosmetic that was throw a belt around the ankle to justify the bulk. That item had spurs, this item has a Puritan boot buckle kinda thing going on.

Anyways these boots are modeled to look like musketeer boots. These work great with any period spy loadout. Dunno if it was obvious… But “Ruse in Boots” is a play on “Puss in Boots”…
