2 central straps are cut from the tire. On the one hand, they are made thin and smooth so as not to rub the foot between the toes. From the wide edge, wide holes are cut into them for transverse straps.

Cross straps are passed through the hole in the central straps. Then their thin edges are inserted into a puncture in the toe of the sole. The ends need to be glued and nailed. Then the transverse straps are also fixed in the side holes of the sole. Their height can be adjusted to fit your feet. To attach them, you will need to drive 2-3 nails on each side.
