Thanks!

Yeah, there's definitely all sorts of cultural etc. associations with DM's, some more positive than others, but they are also genuinely substantial boots that you can get in an incredibly wide range of colors/patterns. Besides the two pairs I mentioned getting on eBay, I also have a tall "ruby slippers" pair made of canvas covered in red glitter, and some DM knockoffs in clear plastic.

I don't think I have particularly wide feet or a high instep so I have no experience to pass on there, though I'd think that the lace-up ones would adjust for any instep.

The only beads (on or off jewelry) I remember seeing at that local show were very uniformly cut and polished -- I guess sometime if I was inspired to make my own I could look into whether any special drill bits etc. would be required to drill holes in rocks.
