I have only found these http://www.paradisefibers.net/Fibertrends-Slipper-Soles-p/2070.htm

However my MIL lives in Florida, so I could get some delivered, via her Very Happy

and I am sure I could get two pairs sent Wink

but if black is ok, then these from the UK; http://www.dragonyarns.co.uk/erol.html#1X0 (scroll down), which are also slightly cheaper. Very Happy

Thank you GS that's a very kind offer though I do like the black ones and my friend has used Dragon yarns and was quite impressed with their service....now where's my credit card Laughing

I like macarons too
could you use flat pieces of suede/leather and just sew them on the bottom and not up the sides iyswim?
I have a pair of similar socks with soles like that
