sizing clone shins?

[DeafTrooper]

Rimshot was telling me that it's a good idea to have the shoes first, before I try to size the shins. Unfortunately, I won't be able to order the shoes for a few months yet. Would it work if I sized the shins now and then took out the bottom returns to fit the shoes when I get them? Seems like it would work, in theory.

Which shoes are you thinking of getting and in what size? The Crow62 shoes?

[DeafTrooper]

Yah, crow's shoes in size 11.5.

I have a pair of his boots that I am looking into getting rid of in a size 12. I do believe his shoes only come in full sizes. He now makes Republic Commando shoes and I want to upgrade

PM sent. Any chance that I can stop by one of these days and use your shoes so I can size my shins? When working, I usually have Thursdays and Fridays off. Like I was saying, I'm off work right now but don't know when I'll be going back, so I have a lot of free time. I have a follow up appointment tomorrow morning and am supposed to start physical therapy tomorrow afternoon. Feeling a lot better, so maybe they will let me cancel the therapy and go back to work. The muscle pain is gone but still have a kink in my back that is a little painful. Maybe Dr. Kern can fix that.

Dr. Kern is a miracle worker. I have an appointment with him tomorrow at 6 and I can swing them by so you can get your shins done.
