bleach waraji sandals HELP! HOW DO I TIE THEM?!

By saneko. 07/05/13, 04:05 pm

*sobs* I've been trying all day with like, another 3 or 4 of my mates today, I even went on google to find tutorials on how to put them on, but they don't seem to have a lot, and also the diagrams are confusing >__>"

we got our sandals off light in the box, I would post up images but my internet is empty so I can pretty much only put up text OTL

this is the tutorial we used, but I don't think it works out the same as our sandals

they look like this: http://www.lightinthebox.com/bleach-soul-reaper-straw-sandals_p240039.html but it looks wrong no?

i'm doing a bleach cosplay at wellygeddon too....wish that i had the sandels though....the tutorial thing didn't look like it was too helpful...*silly designed instructions, they should take graphic design lessons so they learn how to make it easy to design etc.* where did you get yours from?

Ah i figured it out just 15mins ago lol,i got mine from light in the box, i dont recommend it though, the shoes look kinda accurate but at a price lol, they are made from straw, kinda poorly made and they are painful to wear -__-", then again all cosplay waraji sandals are hahah.

Btw any ideas how to make the sandals abit softer so thry hurt less?-__-"

Try breaking them in. They should soften and mould to your feet after a while (days).

Also cut the toes off a pair of thick wool hiking/work socks and wear them under your tabi socks to cushion your feet until they're broken in.
