Recycled Newspapers and Plastic Bags Rain Boots by Louis Rigano Photo

At Rigano's site there's a pattern, so you may give it a try, though it should be scaled first.

This pair of funky yet great looking rain boots was designed by student Louie Rigano for a project at the Rhode Island School of Design in Providence. The goal was to make easy-to-replicate products with a material produced with fused plastic bags, so that the collective Waste for Life could teach to produce them to cartoneros in Argentina.
