Army Scout Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 I will be contacting CA boots to see if they can make the boots. Stand by and wish me luck Army Scout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TB-1019 Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 I sure hope they do a better job with your boots than they did with the standard clone boots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pghfett Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 I think someone asked already about jango boots and they said without a very large order, they won't make them. The soles are not sewn on but pressure molded onto the leather uppers (basically melted rubber into the fabric) which costs a considerable amount of money to make. But good luck, maybe if we keep asking they will make a jango/barc/GM boot LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TB-7076 Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 I'd ask them if a CAD model would help. We could use a common boot for the outline figures and then work up the barc (and scout?) boot sole features. Problem is that the expected sales of such a special boot won't be that high to be economic I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is the email Joey sent me a while back on these boots- Hey guys here is the respone from Ca boots- Unfortunatley the sole is an injection molded sole, So in order to make this boot, it would have to be made in a large quantity - like about 500 - 1000 pairs. To make short runs, in the quanities your asking about - 5 - 10 pairs, we would have to consider a different sole. Please include all previous emails with your response.

Army Scout Posted July 8, 2006 Author Share Posted July 8, 2006 We need em, G Marines and Jangos to. We could get a few sold, but not 500 pairs AS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TB-7076 Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Well it is a valid hiking boot design - they could base an own hiking boot design on it next to the few trooper boots. (goes for both actually) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghst915 Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 As in the other postings for boots, I think I am still going to use these boots- M6 Desert Combat Boot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
