Have somebody trace your feet by standing with each foot on a separate piece of paper.
The paper should be big enough to have space around each foot when you stand on it.

To get an accurate tracing, your partner needs to kneel down in front of you to mark the front part of your foot, and then must come around and kneel behind you to trace your heel side.
REALLY IMPORTANT: Put a mark between big toe and second toe.

the pen should be held straight at a 90 degree angle to the paper and, should just touch the skin lightly
4.
