Groove is releasing a new line of stuff for Pullip called MIO (short for Make it Own) items in the line include everything from blank doll kits to shoes. GrooveUSA very generously sent me samples to review here on my website, this post will be the first one in a series where I review all the MIO stuff. Today’s post will focus on the three shoe sets released for Pullip as a part of a the MIO line. I will do a post at a later date on the Taeyang set as well as if Pullip is able to share any of her lovely new shoes with any of her friends.
Pullip Princess Rosalind was my primary model for the shoe photos. She has been rewigged with one of the MIO wigs and in some of the photos she can be seen wearing the Happiness Chiffon Dress Set which is also a part of the MIO line (in other photos she is wearing J-doll Carrer de Montcada’s stock clothing).
Warning cute shoe overload behind the cut!
Set 1- Engineer Boots x Rubber Soles shoes
MSRP– 1890 yen
This set is a bit plainer than the other two but are great basic shoes that would work with a lot of different looks.
How well do they fit on Pullip? They are slightly big, they would work best with a thin pair of socks, stockings or tights.
Will they fit on obitsu? Fine
Rubber Sole Shoes
How well do they fit on Pullip? They are slightly big, they would work best with a thin pair of socks, stockings or tights.
Will they fit on obitsu? A bit loose on obitsu as well so would probably be best with a thin pair of socks, stockings or tights.
Set 2– High Heels x Short Boot
MSRP- 1890 yen
This set is very feminine but also very versatile. I love the short boots, they are probably my favorite of all the MIO shoes.
High Heels
How well do they fit on Pullip? They are slightly big, they would work best with a thin pair of socks, stockings or tights.
Will they fit on obitsu? A bit loose on obitsu as well so would probably be best with a thin pair of socks, stockings or tights.
Short Boots
How well do they fit on Pullip? They fit very nicely.
Will they fit on obitsu? No
Set 3– Boots x Strap Shoes
MSRP– 1890 yen
This was the set I was most looking forward to seeing out of the MIO shoes as they are just stylish and elegant. They did not disappoint in person, both pairs are absolutely lovely.
Boots
How well do they fit on Pullip? Beautifully!
Will they fit on obitsu? No, the feet could be removed and the boots put on the footless legs but the boots won’t fit with the feet attached.
