They look awesome Doc, you'd never be able to tell they started out as floor mats once they're on you.
Because of how disproportionate the game characters are, it's tough to get the shins to fit right. I've seen people make them the correct height, and then modify the calves to actually be human sized. As for getting your foot in, turn the shin 180 degrees around, put your foot through, and then turn at back around.
