Mohop! the wait is over, they are here!



It's the shoe that other shoes want to be when they grow up! Mohop. A beautifully well designed and brilliantly constructed shoe that the wearer can customise instantly. As each pair comes with 5, yes! 5 sets of ribbons with each purchase.
But wait there's more! (he. he. I've always wanted to say that) you get to not only look fabulous walking down the street, you get to do it while having a clean conscience. These babies are good for the environment.
Annie Mohaupt makes all her shoes by hand in her Chicago workshop. The sole is made of recyled tires and the base is made up of layers of environmentally friendly plywood, veneers, glues, sealers & inks. A sustainable product that is a work of art and FUN!
Personally,I love them. I own a pair. They are my summer shoe of choice or should I say summer "shoes" of choice?
Come in, try them on but bring a girlfriend as the choices are endless and it's good to have help with the big desions like, what colour? what pattern? what metallic? what floral?...

It was the event of the year! Well maybe on our street anyhow but it was a hoot and everyone was merry and bright. We had a lovely time. Food, wine, laughs and henna artist Darshika entertained everyone with her beautiful work.
