Instructions

    • 1

      Draw the outline of both feet onto a piece of paper. Take the time to make sure that your drawing is accurate to the size of your feet.

    • 2

      Cut the outlines of your feet out of the paper with the scissors.

    • 3

      Cut apart the inner tube so that you have a flat section that is large enough to cut out your paper patterns.

    • 4

      Affix the paper foot outlines onto the inner tube with the double-sided tape.

    • 5

      Cut each foot outline out of the inner tube with the scissors. Remove the paper foot patterns from the inner tube insoles after cutting them out.

    • 6

      Fit the rubber insoles into your moccasins. They should fit snugly. If the insoles are not an exact fit, remove them and trim around the edges to make them fit perfectly.
