SoulSlips is a client of mine. Mel makes the slippers by hand on Waiheke from iconic NZ woolen blankets.

The two decades of marketing-guy in me says that they should be on a white background to match what everyone else is doing.....buuuuuuut the sheepskin background gives it such a cool authentic, homely look that I'm thinking the marketing guy in me is wrong...

What do you think?
Appreciate the input.
