Marrying Chacos

From the FAQ section of the Chaco website:
"I am getting married and love my Chaco Sandals. Do you make white sandals?
We do make white webbed wedding sandals by special order. The price is $125 plus $7 shipping and handling. You will need to supply white, tubular, � inch, nylon or polyester webbing. It takes 3 yards of webbing to make a pair. Check at fabric stores, climbing shops and outdoor supply stores. We can also make other custom sandals with webbing you provide or with our webbing.

A good online store for white webbing for women's chacos sandals is at SailRite:
http://www.sailrite.com/

I contacted Chaco's and this is what they wrote back:

We would be delighted to make you a pair of custom Chaco sandals for your wedding. We do not carry white webbing, but can make sandals with white webbing or any other color you can provide. A few good sources for webbing online are www.bisondesigns.com, www.johnhowardcompany.com, and www.tapecraft.com. You can also try fabric stores and climbing shops. The cost is $125.00 per pair plus shipping.

We can only custom-build our Z-model sandals. These require 3 yards of 19mm (3/4”) tubular webbing for women’s sandals and men’s Z/2s. Mens’ Z/1s require 25mm (1”) webbing.

Once you have obtained your webbing, there are two ways to place an order. You can either call Customer Service at 888-211-9211 with your shipping and billing information, or use the secure Repair Authorization form on our website at www.chacousa.com. To fill out the form, just use the top section to give us your shipping and billing information as well as the specifications for your sandals and the date that you need them by. You will then be issued an SA # to send with your webbing. Custom orders typically take 5 business days to build once we receive your webbing. We will then ship them to you via FedEx Ground—unless rush shipping is requested.

would the soles be white, too? like, white webbing with white soles? i like the idea of all white, it'd look funny to have black soles and white webbing.
