What is a TDH member gonna do about the boots? I just called CABoots and they said the manufacture that makes them closed down...they are looking for a new manufacture which we all know will take a Verrrrrrrrrryyyyyy looooonnng time. It looks like Evolution is the last man standing....I know there has to be a craftsman ready to fill a nich...Mark Cheng? Harder to find then droids at the cantine bar....This thread has to inspire or trigger a capilist light bulb..Thoughts..Comments...Suggestions....links to buy...members to bother

I went with Evolutions a month ago, because I was tired of waiting for Caboots. Ever since Evolutions changed to their new two layer sole, they look more accurate now (Caboot's are not 100% accurate anyway), and you can not beat them in price.
 
I have no idea how reione's current Jango Fett boot run is progressing, but I was still holding out hope that his potential Boba boot run was going to happen, it looked like it had some serious potential. It's now hard to believe that so many Boba Fett costumes will be derailed by the lack of availability of a decent & accurate pair of boots! :confused
 
So whats up!!! Can we get some feedback on the boots...I know someone might start a run on the boots after the Jango boot run, but how come no one has jumped on creating a boot run?....any thoughts on Boots? Does anyone have a size 10.5 or 11 CAboots? or am I out of luck when it comes to the boots?
 
I just scratchbuilt my boots, and they are the only peice of my costume I haven't redone 80 times. For how much of a perfectionist this site has made me, I'm really happy with how they look. I think tk409 has a tutorial or something of the sort but don't quote me.
 
Could someone PM me the website for Evolution. CA has Fett boots, but only in 7.5. they said they would have more sizes but i haven't seen an new product for the last two months.

You can get to them through EBay. But don't expect to be in a hurry. It took them about two weeks to make and send them but It took three weeks to get through the mail. Not Evo's fault. Hope this helps.
 
I ordered the "complete ROTJ fett" more than two months ago... and didn't receive all of it yet. Mid ROTJ order, I ordered the boots... Evo got me my boots evil quick... I got the the boots even before the whole costume! If u need boots: Evolution is ur answer....

Hello,

Did you have your complete costume already?
I've ordered mine in March and still haven't got it complete.
I'm still waiting on the chest/back armor and the Jetpack. He said he has send it to me, but till today it has not arrived. He does not respond to my e-mail neither. I'm also have seen that Evolution has nothing to sell on Ebay at the moment. Should he have stopped with his business? I hope not.
 
Evo is still in business. He is just re-tooling per say. Anyone ordering from him is going to have to be patient. It will take awhile. It also has to go through U.S. customs. My boots took 3 weeks to get after they were in country.
 
I also purchased a whole ROTJ costume before I discovered this board.......I ordered the stuff in June. I haven't received anything...........
 
I won't slam Evolution Toys here, because it is not the place...but I will say be careful.

I have noticed that ALL of their items have been pulled from EBAY - that should tell you something.
 
Just try emailing him again or get a hold of him on here, I'm pretty sure he's a member here.
I just ordered boots from him not long ago, just a couple days before he pulled his stuff off ebay, and got my shipping info yesterday so my boots are on the way. No idea why he pulled his stuff off ebay but his website is where he's selling his props now and it's still up and running. Just contact him again it could have just been a mix up and he's likely very busy. Especially as Halloween looms closer.
