DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM!
This product is a mesh intended for developers to derive from. If you buy it, you will end up with an ugly-looking pair of stompers.
If you are wishing to purchase a derived version of these boots, please check them out here.
You can find the female version of these boots here. You can also find an oversized version for girls or boys.

Developer's guide

Welcome developer. This is a quick guide to deriving from this mesh, with some information on the texturing patterns used and several templates aimed at making your life easier. This mesh is fully designed to be easily derived from so that you can easily make your own version of it to fit your needs.

Specifications

These derivable stompers feature two fully mapped boots complete with an opacity map. The boots feature a chunky, upwards-bent toe to better resemble a realistic pair of steel-toed boots in the vein of popular Doc Marteens and Underground boots. Both boots are mapped independently so you can make them have the same texture or have each of them use a different one. The texture is mapped all around the boot without mirroring, so you can paint different stuff on the inside and the outside of the boots. They're fully opacity-mapped, so you can make them lower than they currently are by just using an appropriate opacity map. The boots have a label on the upper part of the boot but, if you want to make them lower, you can easily get rid of it using the embedded opacity map. You can easily turn this mesh into any kind of boots you wish, for use in any urban, punk or goth setting you want.

Note how the mesh has been carefully crafted to be under 90Kb for faster downloading, making these boots both highly detailed and realistic, while still fast-loading on the IMVU client!

The mesh has been carefully weighted so that it bends naturally with the legs and feet. You'll find that they adapt perfectly into any posing spot without the leg showing through or the mesh distorting in ungainly ways. No matter what pose you strike, these boots will always bend the right way for you!

Textures

All the materials in the mesh have been assigned meaningful names to make it easier to identify them. All of the textures are oppacity mapped and non-tiling. Also, the placeholder textures that are in place are color-coded to help you in easily identify what material they belong to. Nonetheless, here's the templates for all the materials on the mesh, as well as a definition of what they are and their main characteristics. You can download the templates for the textures by right-clicking on their names and selecting "Save file as..." from the context menu. I strongly recommend you use JPG files for your textures.
