I know it might be unusual to buy wooden sandals from a stranger on the internet. Are the shoes comfy, is Annie responsive to questions, is it possible to walk in these things?*
I haven't made a product review/testimonial page on mohop.com, as 1) I don't know really how to do that and 2) the only thing I would know how to do is make a list quotes from customer emails, and that seems weird to me. But, there is currently feedback from over 100 customers at Etsy.com, so if you're the type of person who likes to do a bit of research before you make an important purchase (and aren't shoes so important?), then check out the comments here!
*the answer is emphatically yes ;)
about me
- Annie
- Chicago
- I make wooden-soled shoes called Mohops. I started Fresh Shoes Daily to illustrate some of the various ways my shoes can be worn, as well as to chronicle some of my adventures in running a small business. I can't help but talk about some of the amazing indie designers out there, so that's thrown into the mix too. I love to hear your comments and see what you do to customize your Mohops. Send pics!
Comfy to walk in or not..Your shoes are just too cute. I have to have a pair myself.

I love the organic look of these wooden-soled shoes. They are gorgeous! Unfortunately, in soggy Seattle they would work during the rainy season. Will definitely go for these next Spring!
ReplyDeleteThey are comfy. Annie is a dream to work with. They're quite easy to walk in. (I'm a certified klutz and the mid-heel wedges give me no trouble at all.)

I love these shoes...they are very comfortable!! And the adjustable tie makes it easy to place the ribbons where they won't cause blisters if you are prone to them...Annie was very responsive with me, and we had quite a few email exchanges back and forth, and she was always very accessible! I have had a pair for a month now, and quite a few of my friends have seen them, tried them on, and are buying their own pairs!
ReplyDeleteHi Annie,
ReplyDeleteYour shoes are amazing. I came across your work in the book version of handmade nation at the library. I've never quite seen anything like this before. You're doing a wonderful job!
