Does your doll wear shoes?

It depends on the doll but most of mine do

 

this is so funny to look back on because now all of my dolls wear shoes and have to have shoes that go well with whatever they’re wearing. Lmao. It’s interesting to see priorities change in the hobby over time.

 

My dolls always wear shoes unless it's a very casual lounging around outfit. They generally wear socks as well, no cold feetsies!

 

Usually they do, and if they don't, it's because I have nothing that matches their outfit (or their feet). ^_^

 

I have two dolls with shoes and I just ordered another pair from Alice's Collection. I have a difficult time with sizing. I ordered a pair from another shop that were 1/4 but when they arrived we're way too large. I need to learn to make my own.

 

I didn't think I'd want shoes at all for my dolls but now they each have shoes... and I'm shopping for more The sizing is a real headache though. One recent pair is waay too small, no idea what my math was doing that day hahaha!

 

Yes all my dolls wear shoes... unless the outfit doesn't require shoes.

 

I usually make dolls wear shoes, but maybe people cannot see their shoes Cuz I only take pictures of their faces.
If I take them outside, shoes are necessary to stand them by themselves. So, most of times they wear shoes!

 

A lot of dolls seem to not wear shoes! 0.0
A great option with I think is to let them wear socks until finding some that fit.

 

I feel like shoes are kinda difficult because it’s harder to fit them properly? A lot of fantasy dolls don’t wear shoes too

 

I try to put all my dolls in an outfit while they are on the shelf, and that includes with shoes. They feel incomplete when they aren't wearing shoes. (They're also easier to stand with shoes on, so it's easier if I want to take them out for a quick photoshoot.) It'd be one thing if I put them in pajamas, though. I think with pajamas on, they'd look just fine with socks or nothing covering their feet.

 

Currently neither of my dolls wear shoes! One is because she has none, and the other is because I've only got one pair for her and they don't really match any of her clothes (yet?). I did put the shoes on her for one photo session but since then both my dolls have just been sitting around in socks for months. Doll shoes are expensive and I think I prioritize clothes more than shoes for them.

If I could, they'd both have tons of shoes though. It would be nice to have a pair that matches each outfit, but that's a bit of a pipe dream with how much they cost. I'm thinking of learning how to make shoes to save a little and not have to spend a lot of time finding the perfect shoe for a fit.

The only dolls that would be permanently shoe-less would be two characters I may (or may not) shell as dolls someday. It's just part of their design that neither of them ever wear shoes, granted they are fantasy characters.

 

I think my doll can get away with not having shoes due to her fantasy theme but i really do want to make her some nice heels.

 

I'm planning to have my dolls in two fashion styles. When they're in kimono, they don't wear shoes. (Geta feet are hard to find and hybridize, and I'm too lazy to mod their feet.) When they're in smart casual, they have to wear shoes. But getting the right shoes is slow going - I don't want to risk getting the wrong sizes so I'm researching as much as I can before buying. Can't be too cautious, I say!

 

Outfits feel incomplete to me without shoes! Even if i can't see them under the dress, it bothers me to no end.

 

Mine mainly wear socks or stockings. I have a few fullset dolls that came with shoes, my others are shoe less for now

 

Yes! Mia is currently wearing black faux leather lace up boots that are knee length. So far, all of her outfits look more finished with shoes.

 

I can't stand my dolls not to wear shoes (or socks at least, if they're children or in "relax" mode). It just feels like they're not "finished", that something is missing. I have one without shoes because she has very big feet and I can't find shoes her size, and it drives me crazy everytime I look at her

 

Yes, some shoes can help the doll to stand.

 

I have a doll thats based after my spicy character and her entire character since i made her, well before i got into the BJD world, was, she hates shoes, theyre just in the way of her feet doing feet things and grabbing things with her toes like a weirdo, so my demon girl doll doesnt wear shoes, but my more elegant goddess doll has shoes and would look unfinished without them for sure!
