Hi,

Where are these shoes made, my simple calculations suggest that even at $350 they are cheap if they take 14 days to make, thats $25 a day and about £12.50 a day over here in blighty.

I can now understand why you were suggesting $600 a pair. I think you are going to be in a very limited market though as I cant see as these are a practical business to manufacture.

anyway, they look pretty impressive, but I think I will pass, thanks for your time.
