Well, you could mod shoes and/or boots to not conflict, or add [shaped] tokens to both so that Toady's fix for helmets should also apply to boots.
I added the shaped token to high and low boots, and gauntlets before starting a new fort. Armor was produced, and this uniform was built and then assigned. All 9 dwarfs immediately (within 60 seconds) wore their entire uniform properly, replacing shoes, mittens, and caps.

Very cool!  I'm going to try this as soon as I get a chance.  Will this only work if you make the change before starting your fort?  I'm wondering what would happen if I go ahead and edit the raws now with my current fort.

I am not sure. I rarely change the raws. Hopefully someone will answer.

When I can play the fort some more, I also plan to test if the value of the high boots matters compared to the value of the shoes. All the boots the dwarfs wore this time were more valuable and that might be a factor in the dwarf putting on the high boots.

How did I manage to successfully apply the lessons of The Screwtape Letters to my perceptions of big grocery stores?

Okay so that seemed to work but it's important to note that I had to add Shaped to both High Boots and Shoes before it would work.  So in "item_shoes.txt":

Well, you could mod shoes and/or boots to not conflict, or add [shaped] tokens to both so that Toady's fix for helmets should also apply to boots.

I think these values should work, but I haven't tested them:

shoes: size:15 permit:10
boots: size:30 permit:25

Thanks!  Adding [Shaped] to both did the trick.   :)
