...also known as, possibly fucking it up for cheap.
So, like everyone else in the world, I just HAD to havmesome
studded grandaddy loafers, but I didn't want the
ones with lame ass studs where you fold the prongs in
the back, and I didn't wanna pay $100+ for some
shit in the mall. *gives hipster look of disdain*
Ergo, I decided, I #mineaswell (a snow leopard dies every time it's spelled like this)
do it myself.
What I used:
Ab 125 tree spikes (studsandspikes.com)
Yellow loafers from Urban Outfitters
super glue
highlighter
-mark the spots where you want the studs to be, I used a green
highlighter so that I messed up it wouldn't b that noticeable.
-start by gluing the screw backs to the studs on the spots.
Make sure to apply pressure for about a minute
to make sure it holds. If you use
the kind of glue I did, be careful bc that shit gets on everything.
-wait 24hrs for them to dry
-swag that shit out like it cost $200.
Other DIYs drill holes in the shoes, but, and it may just
be me, these shoes are narrow as shit and
hurt my achilles tendon as is, so I would assume
that the backs of the studs would be even worse.
voila.
