Had enough of neon loneliness?

These replica 20th century leather motorcycle boots feature a stylish Cuban heel and a removable harness, allowing you to go straight from an afternoon bike ride in the Badlands to a night out in City Center without missing a step. Available in a variety of traditional and "fashion" leathers including faux-crocodile skin and patent synthleather in 14 different colourways, with accents in either silver or gold, you're sure to find a look that speaks to you. Unisex sizing. Contains no animal products.

- aXL addition for both masc V and fem V: 14 new colours, plus two different options for hardware (silver or gold, configurable in the yaml).

- the original "shorties" boots in vanilla are very cool-looking on fem V and on masc NPCs, but on masc V they're hideous, having been altered in shape to accommodate V's big ol' flat feet. No more! These take the much nicer shoe shape that NPCs get and convert it for use by the player.

- fem V also receives a scaled-down version of this nicer mesh, such that her shoes no longer look like a different shoe entirely, i.e. they now have the same form factor for the heel and sole shapes rather than an arbitrarily way higher and more arched version. I get why CDPR does this so often, but it still annoys me. If you order a pair of shoes that come in men's and women's sizes in real life, you don't expect the two to be wildly different, usually!

- includes cleaned-up normal maps that remove weird artifacting and jankiness along the edges of the upper where it meets the sole.

- includes a toggle item for use with EquipmentEX that allows you to toggle on/off the harness strap.

- fully garment-support compatible with vanilla garments + GS-compatible custom clothes.

- hides feet to prevent any sneaky clipping.

- available on an atelier store, StealHisLook.web, for your convenience.

- if you have the Virtual Atelier addon Item Tag Registry installed, all variants of the boots will be grouped together under one icon in the store: look for "Blue Leather Harness Boots" to find them.

Optional file: bonus fix!

- the optional file will apply my edits to the vanilla shoe that uses this model, boots_02 (the "western shorties" and variants). You can install it either alongside the main mod or on its own, it's a standalone fix. Both masc and fem V's version of the items will receive my retooled version of the mesh plus the cleaned-up normal maps; colours
