Fish Skin Shoes

April 7, 2014 by Mary Jane 4 Comments

As promised some wonderful fish skin shoes from Iceland,
with beautiful hand knitted insoles.

The curators know their knitters, we can see the both the public side on the left, and the private side on the right…you know every knitter asked to see the wrong side!

I love that the insoles are so beautiful and carefully planned, all for something no one but the wearer will see. A private pleasure! The following are all versions of the flower pot design.

Which one is your favorite….too hard to choose!

    They’re all beautiful, I don’t want to choose! 😉
    The fish skin shoes are really cute but look so fragile, were they only worn indoors? How thick is the fish skin?
    I’m absolutely fascinated!

    Oh, the top left – the natural brown, though they are all beautiful. Fascinating.

    I love these. Love the idea of making such beautiful insoles, like a secret garden for your feet. Can’t decide on fave. Love the two colored edging on some of them.
