Joop Boots

Postby Caver1402 » Mar 20, 2007 4:22 pm

I know there are other threads talking about Joop Boots, but I just wanted to find out if anyone knows if they are still being sold? I'm hoping to get a pair before the end of May. :woohoo:

Sure he is. You need to contact Mark Joop and order them. I'll PM you his email. It may take a while to get them, as I think he prefers to have several orders before he imports them.

Laura
I'm thinking about ordering a pair also. I have one pair but they're not going to last forever. Rather have a set staying safe in the cool basement for the day I blow out my pair...
There's two pair for an order!

I think he was keeping a lot of the most popular sizes in stock at his house, so he may have the size she needs.

even if you have to wait a couple weeks for him to get more, it's worth the wait. I love mine.

I've sent him an email ... hopefully he replies soon! I tried his fax, but it didn't go through.

he'll answer you. My wife got mine for me for Christmas, and somehow they managed to keep it almost a secret from me - except for the foot tracing part. :-)
