It is possible with any MTO from my website. Just need to include "Topy Soles" in the "Notes" section at the end of the order process. I can also get G&G to stick them on to my stock shoes if required.

You are correct. The Dainite would last longer and the Topy soles would need replacing often and I know some people have experienced trouble removing them by local cobblers so choose your cobbler well. Also, G&G offer the Double Dainite sole, which is what is more commonly used and they have a Single Dainite sole which is finer and more suited to their sleek appearence. I'll post images tomorrow of both.

Thank you for your answer. If a good cobbler can replace the topys then it is perhaps more "healthy" for the shoes longevity wise. It is a minor operation compared to replacing the whole sole. I am only speculating though, I have no specific knowledge of it.

Thank you for your help before but No I can't upload images from my iPad or iPhone . If anyone could help that would be great because I can send images of G&G's on a more regular basis.

It seems that G&G can make any pair look sleek regardless of dainite soles. Now that's skill.

Personally I would not have rubber soles on those kind of shoes. But looking at that I agree with you.

have you tried the tapatalk app? it has excellent photo uploading.

the single danites are indeed much nicer looking on the sleeker shoes imo.
