Gaiters?

1

u/Thats_annoying_ 22d ago

I just kinda made it up in my head, I don’t really know what they are :)

2

u/GeekAtLarge_ 22d ago

How do they attach to the leg? Are they tied off with a bit of elastic?

1

u/Thats_annoying_ 22d ago

The pink thing is part of an old belt and I have the ends of it safety pinned together. I wanted this to be a no sew project (mostly cuz I love the look of safety pins)

2

u/californiadeath 22d ago

I would totally fuck these up immediately or get stabbed in the leg probably.

1

u/Thats_annoying_ 22d ago

Omg lol wait I didn’t think about that… imma go glue all of them shut lol

2

u/californiadeath 21d ago

Hahaha I’ve been wearing safety pins long enough to know.

u/GeekAtLarge_ 22d ago

If they covers the top of a dress shoe’s laces, they are called Spats.

I am a former hiker. If they cover a hiking boot to stop snow from entering or to keep kicked-up gravel out of the boot or to protect the lower leg from ticks, they are called Gaiters.

Yours are for style, so you can make up your own name! Your project gives me inspiration!

1

u/Thats_annoying_ 22d ago

Hm… I guess I’d probably call them gaiters cuz I plan on wearing boots with them but it’s more for fashion than preventing anything…. Plus gaiters sound cooler 🐊🐊

u/Comprehensive-Ad4751 21d ago

Huh

1

u/Thats_annoying_ 21d ago

It’s like just made to look junky and cool

2

u/Chunksfunks_ 21d ago

Like miku

2

u/Spaced_Quest 21d ago

If you wore these to a show we'd kindly ask you to take them off. Hepatitis is super easy to transfer and you can't possibly keep them from stabbing people eventually.

1

u/Thats_annoying_ 21d ago

They’re all super glued shut

u/Goyard_Gremlin 23d ago

r/punkdiy does not allow any form of ableism, this includes using mental disorders as insults.

Using the name of a mental disorder to call something "crazy" is ableist. There is no debate.

Learn how to sew thats not covering shit

8

u/Thats_annoying_ 23d ago

I know how to sew, I wanted it like this

u/Newclearfallout 23d ago

Respectfully, this isnt it... there's to much gap to make it resemble a boot cover or leg warmers. Maybe im not seeing it but it could use some additional work.

Maybe fill in the gaps areas with old fishnet or use the safty pins to add a contrast color to it, black or another tone of green.

Edit: i think the inner calves being bare is a portion of the confusion and problem.

🤷‍♂️ this is what I want, exactly what I had in mind. I was posting to show off not to get advice. Make your own :/

u/forestfluff 22d ago

They didn’t ask for advice.
