Histiletto Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 I have tried this route with a number of custom shoemakers over the years with some success after having to make some concessions. Some of the best custom shoemakers have passed on or quit. So there are very few of them in business on their own any more. Even the so-called custom designed shoes businesses are dependent on their stock of inventory and in house patterns that tend to conform with the common styles of the day that are already made and available on the market. Your choices are between their available materials, colors, and strap placements possibly. Attachments and appliques, such as bows, rosettes, jeweled items (usually imitation), buckles, and etc. are sometimes available and usually can be added upon request (at extra costs, of course).

meeny Posted July 18, 2014 Author Posted July 18, 2014 I'd love to design shoes... not sure about how one starts that career at the tender age of 53!
