Anyone know where to GET them?

You can have black shoes, but I don't think you can dye sandals.

You can get black shoes from player vendors. Otherwise you need to know
someone with a black dye tub.

You have to kill NPCs. That is why a lot of NPCs are wandering around with
the invunerable tag over their heads now. Disrupted game play when people
were killing all the shop keepers.

various colored sandals spawn on some types of NPCs, so by killing them you
can acquire colored sandals. But normal sandals are undyeable.

No, the object "sandals" is UN-dyeable, they just come pre-colored when
taken off NPC's

That is the whole reason colored sandals bring such high prices (c 50k),
because they cannot be made, only rarely taken from npc.

Thanks to all the lamoes who regularly kill NPCs for their sandals to charge
4-8k on a vendor, a goodly number of the tailors around Britannia are quickly
becoming [invulnerable]. Oh well, you can always kill an artist or 2 out in the
wilds..

Ugly things, anyway...
I've yet to fathom the attraction of wearing sandals of any color.....

Unless there's some way to dye sandals (which i doubt since they are so
rare) then yes, there has to be "natural" true black sandals.

Don't ask me, I don't wear sandals, I just know that you can't dye sandals,
not without some kind of trick anyway, and OSI's been pretty keen about
declaring any "tricks" in the game engine to be exploits. ;)

True black sandals do indeed spawn on NPCs from time to time. I found a pair
for sale on Moonglow a few months ago for around 5k gp, IIRC. I gave them to
a good friend, and she used a clothing bless deed that I also gave to her
recently on them so that she could actually wear them in public.

Someone recently offered her 200k gp for them.

They give zero armor which means faster meditation.

So does going barefoot, and it costs a lot less.

But heck, PK that killed my tamer in Wind? He was wearing colored sandals
that weren't blessed so after I got them used a bless deed and gave them to
my miner.
