   DANG, that’s freakin’ amazing! This looks like it was really involved, though - how long did it take?

   Probably, errr, 20 hours. But the vast majority of that time was the whole trial and error phase of the project. Five or six hours were actually productive.

   Those are amazing!

   How did you attach the sole to the upper?

   I cannot wait to see the “real” version if these ones are so great.

   I am in awe! Your very own custom Pumas. I have the same question as loriz, “How did you attach the sole?”

   That’s pretty amazing! I especially like the sewn-on puma.

   Shoe goo is the secret. It’s a very noxious adhesive meant especially for shoes. (We got it at Fred Meyer.)
