Hey guys,
Here's an update on the Jango Boot Project.
I've been informed by my sources that the metal molds (Dyes) used to make the original Kenneth Cole "Pit Crew" Soles have all been destroyed. That all subsequent castings that were made and licensed to other brands of footwear are all that remain of the original design.
In a nutshell.....The soles don't exist anymore!
All new aluminum molds would have to be fabricated and this is no cheap task. Several thousands of dollars per size sole I'm told.
So, the new task is to find a compatible replacement?
Does anyone have any ideas or perhaps owns a pair of boots that would pass for the KC pit crew version soles?
If so, then perhaps those soles still exist in the world market?
Share your thoughts guys....

I'm starting a Jango build, and I want accuracy, so if you get this done, I'll order a pair of North American 11's
