DIY project! J. & C.F. Baker midsoles from Sorrel Notions. The 9/10 iron leather adds great support to the soft Gloxi Cut soles. Hard to hand stitch, though.

More about this item

This is a DIY recraft using J.&F.J. Midsoles from Sorrel Notions. The stiffness from the 9/10 iron leather really compliments the soft Vibram Gloxi Cut soles. I stripped and re-dyed them black. Should look like teacore as they wear.
