It’s such a shame to throw away your favorite old boots. I have an idea on how to prolong their life for the benefit of myself or the child. For this purpose, boots with long tops, natural fur or other good insulation are suitable. From these we will cut out excellent insoles for new winter shoes, which will give more thermal insulation and will keep your feet warm.
1. So, we have old boots that are no longer suitable for wear, but they still have a long top with warm fur intact. We cut off the top and throw away the bottom of the boots.

2. If the boot tops are high enough, then you can make insoles for yourself, your husband, and your child. Assess how long the insoles will last. Take the shoes that you will be insulating, remove the original insoles from them and attach them to the cut off tops. Trace with chalk or pencil to make cutting easier.
In this case, use not only the fur lining itself, but also the top layer - leather. This will give the insoles extra density and help retain more heat.

3. As a result, we will get insoles like these.In the photo in the center are the original insoles from the boots that we will insulate, along the edges there are insoles cut from the tops. A pair of fur ones and a pair of leather ones.

4. Then you need to glue the leather and fur insoles together. Then glue them to the insoles of the boots. Glue so that the fur remains on top. Your feet will be softer and more comfortable. The resulting insoles should not be glued inside the boot, because sometimes they need to be removed, dried or ventilated.
