Gathering the Resources Needed

You need to acquire Coarse Fabric and Rough Hide for crafting your boots. To get Coarse Fabric, you must first collect Plant Fiber from bushes, ferns, or grass from the Coastal Jungle. Then, put 3 Plant Fiber in the Workbench and you should have 1 Coarse Fabric.

To acquire Rough Hide, you are going to have to kill Boars and Sows. Sows drop 1 Rough Hide while Boars drop up to 2. It might seem like a no-brainer to farm the latter, but be wary of their dangerous charges.

Crafting the Boots

Equipping the Boots

Now that you have your boots crafted, equip them by going to your Inventory and swapping your Torn Boots out. The Survivor’s Boots provide 100 Defence on top of the base value, which helps quite a lot when going toe-to-toe with stronger enemies like the Boar, Drowned, Thorned Fiddler, or Sailor.
