This is a random thing I decided to do as I keep on being asked by cosplayers what type of boots a certain Arrancar wears. Well I decided to do this to answer they're questions. Also to a special certain someone. No these boots arn't gay! XDD

Anyways...

Here are the different types of Arrancar boots that appeared in Bleach manga, anime, games etc. After being sad enough I spend my time looking at the manga and series and found out there are MANY different types of Arrancar boots worn. Here they are to help thoses who wish to cosplay but doesn't know what boots they wear.

The best way to do the lines is grabbing a pencil and draw the lines on lightly enough to see the lines. Then grabs some tape and stick them on the lines or carefully paint the lines with white paint or tip-pex. However if used on leather or pleather boots the paint could crack up and wipe off so try and find a way to avoid this problem.

Anyways now to describe the different types of Arrancar boot to you.

Boot #1
The common Arrancar boot. Nearly every single Arrancar in the series wears these. Sosuke Aizen, Gin Ichimaru and Kaname Tosen also wear these. Orihime Inoue also wears these in the Hueco Mundo arc.

For cosplay all you need to do is buy yourself a pair of black flat round toe knee high boots similar to this: [link]
You can have a small heel on the boots if you like as in the manga some are shown with small heels and in the anime not a single heel is seen on the boots.

These boots are very common on eBay. Look for these: [link]

Also, the Arrancar Loly, wears boots like this but her's are tight high boots. So if you wanna cosplay Loly, look for these or something similar: [link]

Boot#2
These boots are very much the same as the original Arrancar boots but with a different pattern, note that there are 3 lines on each side instead of 1. These different to the other boots are worn by Barragan Luisenbarn, the 2nd Espada.

Boot#3
These boots are a little different to the frist pair of boots. They are basically Boot #1 but turned into ankle boots with a cuffs on them. Similar to something like this: [link] you can choose to have small heels on them and leave them as flat.
These boots are worn by the adult version of Neliel Tu Oderschvank, the former 3rd Espada.

Neliel's boots are found on eBay. Look for these: [link]

Boot #4
Right, here we go. The most interesting and probably the most hardest boots to make, these wicked witch style boots and wore by Nnoitra Jiruga, the 5th Espada. Nnoitra's boots are basically like a wicked witch type boot or a western genie like with a massive heel. Sadly I have got nothing to help you people make or what to get to make these boots as I have never come across something like this is my entire life. Sorry.

However I found these on DA that might help you: [link] all that's missing is the heel.

Boot#5
Right, firstly it's not really a boot. It's more of a slipper shoe or flats that girls usually wear like this one [link]
These are worn by Zommari Lennox, the 7th Espada. His shoes were not shown much in the anime or manga but you get a perfectly good view of them in the video game Bleach: Versus Crusade on Nintendo Wii. Basically purchase yourself a pair of black flats and remove the fancy stuff that's on it without ruining the shoes.

Boot #6
Simple boot this. Basically just buy a men's western style boot with a low heel and a round toe if you can. Or something like this: [link]
These funky western boots are worn by the Arrancar, Dordonii Alessandro Del Socacchio. Yes he does have a long name...

Boot #7
Right, these boots are quite different to everyone elses. These boots look like a flat version of Gothic or Lolita boots as the toe it more rounded then any others. Also there seems to be a white cuff collar on top of the boots too. These boots are worn by the Arrancar, Cirucci Thunderwitch. Finding flat gothic boots are hard as hell, especally ones without laces. Best thing to do is buy rain boots.

Boot #8
These boots are basically a pair of Ugg boots. So for cosplay purchase yourself a pair like these: [link] and sew on a fluffy white collar at the top of the boot. This boots are worn by the Arrancar, Lilynette. Starrk's Fraccion. In the series are Ugg like boots have a small heel on them but no known Uggs in the real world has heels so don't worry about them.

Boot #9
Probably the most lady like and sexiest Arrancar boots here. Anyways these boots are worn by the Arrancars Ying and Yang from the 2nd Bleach movie Diamond Dust Rebellion. Unlike the other boots these are high heel and knee high boots with weird little cuffs like things on the top of the and ankles. For thoses who cosplay Ying or Yang and actually decide to walk in these. I wish you luck XD. Right find yourself a pair of knee high heeled boots like this one here: [link] and do yourself some alternate fittings such as the collar around the ankles.

Well that is all for now. I will update this whenever a new pair of Arrancar boots appears in the story line.
