Q: What does a pony do?
Billiards
Hoof boots. Hoots? Boofs?

These are certainly no Weta digilegs ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tx6ej0Vh7HE ) but I wanted something more compact.

I don't suppose anyone knows how I could get these made? >_>

I'd imagine I would trip like a thousand times wearing those. xD

Haha, wearing heals takes time to get used to. Even my logger boots can throw me off if I haven't worn them in a while.

I'm a MAJOR klutz so it would take me decades to get used to it. xD

Ah well, they're not for everyone I guess. x3

youd really want the ball of your foot to your toes flat otherwise each step would impact the tip of your big toe against the front of the hoof... x.x;

I think if you walked heel to toe it wouldn't be so bad. Main thing is having your foot bent for extended periods of time isn't good for it, so I was going for a more flat footed approach.

it would be more like wearing wedges (those shoes women wear... like these http://cdn.iofferphoto.com/img/item/515/428/544/2012-w... )

Yeah, and I don't want my feet to be bent that much.

What panther said.  This is a nice concept, but I've actually developed this and have used it several times effectively.  It takes a little time to adjust to the new foot position but otherwise it's a pretty comfortable shoe, if you can get it to fit just right that is.
You can find some WIP images here: https://www.furaffinity.net/scraps/furredoutkreations/
and here: https://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/provalone/
The WIPs aren't incredably detailed, but it should give you an idea of how it works.

I don't have a clue what I'm supposed to be looking at there.

Okay, so the steps of construction basically follow this:
1 - https://www.furaffinity.net/view/5797071/ [Make block of floor mats and make profile shape of "shoe" piece]
2 - https://www.furaffinity.net/view/6707987/ [make foam "mold" of hoofs with internal cavity for foot]
3 - https://www.furaffinity.net/view/6708001/ [wrap foam work and "shoe" in wire mesh for smooth surface and structure support]
4 - https://www.furaffinity.net/view/6708013/ [finish off with Wonderflex, multiple layers for strength and durability minimum of 3 layers, more on bottom. Cover in layer of Gesso and sandpaper smooth, repeat many many many times until satisfied with smoothness]
5 - https://www.furaffinity.net/view/6707951/ [Paint, attach fur and enjoy]

Ah, that's pretty cool. I might have to try something like that out in the future.
