How to design your Bespoke Shoes, The Solely Original Journey

As women, why are we constantly compromising between fashion and comfort? Since time began, many women have been admiring high heels, from a distance, for many reasons. However, we’re beginning to change that, we’ve made it easier than ever to design your bespoke shoes. You begin by choosing from 12 types of shoes, including ballet pumps, court shoes and wedges. After that- there’s no limits! You choose exactly how you’d like your shoes, from our huge range of premium materials.

So, if nowhere does a heel just the right height for you, or you can’t find the right colour to go with your favourite dress- we’ve solved that problem for you.

Previously, we spoke about the benefits of our PrecisionFit service, and mentioned our shoes are also available in standard sizes. Additionally, we include design features such as; a memory foam sole, that supports the contours of your feet. Plus, we can offer specialist features; such as arch support to relieve pressure or heel support to prevent blisters.

We aim to modernise traditional practices and empower busy women with shoes that are available no matter what the size or shape of your feet.


What material can I use to design my bespoke shoes?

In contrast to traditional shoemakers, who work almost exclusively with leather, we offer hundreds of shades in a range of materials. Sure, leather is durable and classic- but less versatile. Also, you can request up to three swatches, at no charge. So, you can see for yourself, before you order, which shade goes best with your skin tone, or the dress you’ve wanted to wear forever!

We’re here to help you design your bespoke shoes!

Regardless of your creative skills- we’re here to help you design your dream shoes. View our sample shoes and swatches during a styling appointment at our East London studio.

Alternatively, we’re also on Skype! We can chat over any questions you may have, or any suggestions we could offer- while you have a cup of tea wherever you may be.

What do I do if my design isn’t available on the online 3D Designer?

If, you can’t spot the exact colour you need, or you need a specific heel height- don’t panic! Just give us a call or email us. We’ve never said No to a client! We’ll work with you until we have exactly what you need to design your bespoke shoes, we’re more than happy to source embellishments and materials.

Can you copy a design for me?

Due to copyright laws, no shoemaker is legally allowed to replicate any design exactly. However, we can remake your oldest, favourite pair with a little bit of your creativity added!
