Source for Iplehouse FID male boots/shoes?

Postby kenaiqueen » Mon Oct 15, 2018 11:43 pm

Having a terrible time finding boots that will fit the Iplehouse Rex FID man I have on order. The Iplehouse site has some but the price of the shipping is more than the boots which aren't exactly cheap either. The fact sheet says he has a 7cm foot length and most of the boots I see on ebay are either too small or too big. 1/3's seem to 8cm. Anyone have one of these bad boys and found a good resource for shoes for him? Not a rush as I probably won't see him til Christmas but I'd like to be ready for him when he arrives.

Can I take it that yours is also a Muscle FID?
When yours gets home measure the length and width off his foot. (7 x 3cm I think) for inner length and width of boot. Some female shoes inner length might be close to his but not the width.

At current point my FID Muscle Dexter share shoes with an old Iple SID woman )7.5) and Souldool Vito (7.5) Since those are from Taobao, One source is either ebay or ACBJD (Alice collection). I'll have to dig out some of the boots since the dolls don't actively wear shoes

Keeping in mind these are sized for 1/3 male BJD, since thats the only non company stuff that fit Helen(SID Woman) and VR(Soulddoll Vito). Take note on the inner length and width if available

You could try Alice Collection, M3 Studio, Tata, Sunny World or Ebay stores that sells for some of the Taobao. The weather destroyed some of my regular boots (flake/mould) so you been warned.

The outer length not an indicator of fit, just reference for looks

Some of these might fit your boy (the ones that say 'Athletic') but tightly. :)

Yep. Chloe told me she likes her boys on the beefy side! I looked at the Alices...looks promising! Thanks!

Also, Dexter in the white boots....LOL! He's a fun guy!

Thanks, I had looked at those and wondered, but I didn't care for any of the styles she has. I will probably get a wig for him from her tho.

I ended up buying 2 pairs of boots, jeans and a jacket for my new guy plus a few other things. I want him to have at least one outfit that fits him when he gets here and maybe I'll be inspired to sew for him when I see him.

Lol. Pants)Another Dimension/ M3 both Alice carnies) might run a little long in the hem but not an issue. Tops are hit or miss if you don't like the lapel to look too big. Out of various pieces sized to 1/3 male bjds and slimmer 70cm,the lapel of a second hand shirt turn out to be a decent match. It could have came from Sadol since the accompany jacket is green.
