I started following her on IG in hopes that they'll go on sale again soon. Assuming they hold up well I'm also planning to sell them on the Classifieds to make some of my money back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1375691 Sat, 25 Jan 2014 14:22:47 +0000 shopaholic 1375691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: Oh! ITA! I couldn't even believe myself, since I've become so cheap about buying things for myself. But I bought a size up in hopes she'll wear them longer (and gender-neutral colors for future LO). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1375689 Sat, 25 Jan 2014 14:19:45 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1375689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: @lawbee11: I actually totally agree re: price to make (leather obviously isn't cheap + manual labor) and what she charges. However, there is just a point where I can't afford something - no matter how much I want to support the business or believe they're worth it. I think that's the position of most here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1375595 Sat, 25 Jan 2014 13:14:52 +0000 shopaholic 1375595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: I feel like that too. :( Sad, but it's almost an exact knock-off. </p> <p>@scg00387: I bought a pair from an IG/Etsy seller too. Quality is SO different than the FP ones. </p> <p>@lawbee11: I did splurge on a couple of FP's for K and love them! After hearing her story and how much her actual cost is to make each pair, I don't mind the high price tag as much either. But currently everything is made in the U.S.A., which I'm willing to pay more for too. If she really does take manufacturing overseas, I think she will get a lot of quality concerns (and it's already been voiced on her IG and FB a lot). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1375517 Sat, 25 Jan 2014 11:46:49 +0000 birdofafeather 1375517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: we have those moccs and I can't help but think they copied the design as they are the exact same as far as I can tell! That being said, I really like the SK moccs! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1375499 Sat, 25 Jan 2014 11:38:52 +0000 immabeetoo 1375499@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: I bought a pair off etsy and they were so poorly made. Fell apart after a week and the replacement pair se sent were two completely different sizes. Buyer beware :) (though it wasn't that seller</p> <p>I think handmade leather shoes should be pricey but they're just not in our budget. I want to watch this episode though!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1375432 Sat, 25 Jan 2014 10:56:10 +0000 lawbee11 1375432@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just watched the episode on Hulu Plus...OMG love those mocs. And the mom that started it is awesome. I think I'll buy a pair for M when she starts walking (maybe as a birthday gift). I just love the mom's story and wouldn't mind spending that much to support her business. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1375253 Sat, 25 Jan 2014 08:39:34 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1375253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the company and the mom who heads it - I follow her on IG and she seems so inspiring and down to earth.</p> <p>But can't help but agree that I would never pay $60 for baby shoes. The biggest sale she had was 25% off and that was still too high for me. The most I've ever paid for J's shoes was $30 and that was recently because now he'll be in sizes a little longer and he needs good quality shoes since he is so active.</p> <p>For anyone interested, I found this etsy shop selling baby mocs. They are $36 each, so more reasonable. Sadly they cut off at 12-18 months. <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/SophieKateMoccasins?ref=listing-shop-header-item-count" rel="nofollow">https://www.etsy.com/shop/SophieKateMoccasins?ref=listing-shop-header-item-count</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1375068 Sat, 25 Jan 2014 02:01:21 +0000 shopaholic 1375068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She is really an inspiring mom-entreprenuer! I also loved the story from the SwimZip mom! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1374935 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 22:53:56 +0000 bisous 1374935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cutest moccasins ever! I want them so badly for my LO, but I can barely get shoes on her now. :grin: Yay for Freshly Picked getting on Shark Tank! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1374909 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 22:34:18 +0000 Arden 1374909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love them but I don't pay that much for my own shoes (that I don't outgrow in three months)! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1374903 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 22:29:13 +0000 travellingbee 1374903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So cute but definitely too expensive! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1374902 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 22:28:53 +0000 mrs bunchy 1374902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just saw this!!!! I was blown away! Baby Toms are only $31 at Nordstrom and even that can be a little steep. (Although I would buy them cause I own a few). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1374896 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 22:26:47 +0000 birdofafeather 1374896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i'm gonna watch when it comes on here at 9 PST! i really like what she's doing and will probably watch for the next sale and get a pair! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1374882 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 22:17:20 +0000 Mrs. Sketchbook 1374882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runnerd: I know! I told DH they cost 40 and he was like HA THAT'S ludicrous. I didn't even know they were 60! Ouch! LO has a pair of minnetonkas that to me look very similar, all leather. They were only 19! They are his 'dress up' shoes, lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1374857 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 22:00:28 +0000 Smurfette 1374857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runnerd: No way for kids shoes they will wear for a couple months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1374855 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 21:57:07 +0000 mlm2934 1374855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha I'm watching right now! $60 a pop is too rich for my blood. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freshly-picked-mocs-on-shark-tank#post-1374846 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 21:52:21 +0000 Mrs. Sketchbook 1374846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>...tonight.</p> <p>Oh lurve them. </p>
