After several requests, here is my tutorial for Non-Stretch Fabric Boot Covers! This works for any kind of fabric and uses an invisible zipper closure at the back of the boot cover.

I've made quite a few boot covers, all of them different, but most employing this method. Please let me know if you have any questions!

If you're making a cover that is taller than a base boot, how do you stop it from falling down once it's on? Should you use a heavier fabric or will the zipper support the weight?

In the end, I'm not above spirit gum. :P

I use a stiff lining fabric like twill as a base so the fashion fabric is more stable. The zipper doesn't really do much to make the cover stay up.

How long does the zipper has to be? As long as the cover or can it be a bit shorter?
