Based on Boot Covers by carlyjcais

I had this pair of red shoes and i wanted to rock them a little bit. I also had an awful red leatherette jacket which thankfully i didn't give away.I cut out the sleeves of a leatherette jacket. I wanted full length so I just cut the excess fabric near shoulders and did the same with the lining too. I tried them on many times to see how they fit better because I wanted to avoid much sewing (is not my thing yet). I was very lucky! they fitted perfectly over my shoes so, I kept the lower part of the sleeve as it was and I unseamed the inner seams to make it fit better on my leg. I wrap it up around my leg and i used sticky tape to hold it. (Pins make holes to leather). I also tighten the lining and sew them both. I add a foam sheet between leatherette and lining because I didn't want to wrinkle that much. I glue the upper hem and sew a piece of elastic just in front of the heels to keep them in place.
