I’ve been ringing that bell for quite some time. Someone finally listened and made that gat dang Claus boot. The bastards.I’ve seen several pairs of the Jingle Bell Moks and Santa Moks. And as someone pointed out, they are unlined. They have a single leather (butyl) sole. They are not exactly what I would spec for a full-price winter season shoe. When those were originally available a few years back, they were sold at a special (lower) price. As neat as they are, it’s hard for me to justify that price for a novelty shoe.
I have a pair of the Neumoks in the acorn hillfire leather. They have had a fair amount of wear but are not worn out. I was planning to sell them. Given the size 13B, there is not a huge market, so I would not get much by selling them.
This afternoon I had an idea. I’ve already got red and green leather dyes. (Who doesn’t?) Should I just Jingle-ize my existing Neumoks?
Check out the link for Neo’s size guide i posted a page ago. It’s not comprehensive of perfect lasts and missing some of the newest models, but it has a good amount of examples for each last.Is it possible to find lasts for the AE shoes in ones collection? Or any brand lasts?
