Cut a piece of paper large enough to trace your foot twice on.
Trace an outline of your foot with a marking pen making sure to keep the pen perpendicular to the paper.
Mark a dot in between your first and second toe.
Make marks in front of your medial and lateral malleolus (the bony bump on the inside and outside of your ankle). These marks show where you will punch holes to thread the lacing through later on.
Round out any lumps or concavities. It is easy to remove excess material and almost impossible to add material.
The finished product should look like this. If your feet are shaped differently or one is longer than the other (like mine) you will have to create another pattern. If your feet are relatively the same, you can simply flip the pattern and create another set of marks.
