shoe modeling

what is the best way to model a shoe.

using blender. usually best to have at least one foot on the end of your leg, and also a real shoe as a reference.

be more specific?

i am trying to model a jedi boot and i was just wanting to know is it better to use subsurf or not for modeling a shoe

Usually you would, unless it’s going to be used in a game or something. Include as many details as you can in the mesh also, so you have less to put in a texture.
