Designing Tool & Ordering Process

You can swiftly navigate through dozens of curated designs in our website. You can order directly the style as seen in our gallery using the “Add to cart” button, or you can click on “Customize” to load the 3D designing tool and make any modification you want.

Each style has a “Size Help” link next to the “Add to cart” button with useful information. As a general advise, order the same size you would normally wear on other men dress shoes. Our shoes are true to fit.

Select the style from our gallery, and click on the “Customize” button, instedad of “Add to Cart”. The style will be loaded on the 3D designing tool, and you will be able to make any modification you want.

You can design your own style from scratch using our 3D designing tool, on the “Customize” section.

Yes, all our shoes are produced individually strictly following our customer’s design instructions.

We use Blake Stitching on most of our styles. Is the same comfortable and sturdy method used by one of the best shoe makers in the world, Berluti. The rest use the Cementing method.

There are dozens of materials: box calf, painted calf, suede, etc. To review the materials available, open the 3D designing tool and click on a shoe piece. Bear in mind that not all materials can be used in all shoe pieces. Restrictions apply.

No, we don’t have any additional materials other than the ones that are available on the 3D designing tool. When you select a shoe piece, all materials available for that piece will show up.

No, developing new shoe patterns is out of the scope of our customization program. Some configuring options let you change the pattern, for example, in some styles you are allowed to change the toe cap style, the brogue pattern, or even add ornaments and different styles like tassels, masks, etc.


Production & Manufacturing

The average production time in our factory for MTO orders is 4 weeks (average). Remember that you are purchasing a made-to-order pair of shoes, that is, your pair is not produced in advance, every part of it will be hand-crafted, exclusively for you, after submitting your order. From start (leather hand cutting) to finish (sole stitching).

Also, bear in mind that some customizations and artisan methods (i.e Patina Finishing) are more time consuming than others. If you customize your order with them, we might exceed the standard manufacturing time.

We will do our best to fulfill the above production time for all the orders, however, as a hand-made production process, our production line is subject to issues which are out of our control. Issues like stains or broken pairs while moulding the shoes, forces us to start the manufacturing process from the beginning.

In those cases, we promise to keep you informed, and try to finish the manufacturing as soon as possible.

On the unlikely event of not being able to produce your pair again from the beginning in a reasonable amount of time (i.e. Out of stock of a certain material) we will contact you immediately and offer an exchange or a full refund

Since this a made-to-order service, we do not allow to cancel or modify an order which has been placed and paid on our systems, since it will be automatically sent to production right away after the payment.

If you spot any error after submitting an order, please, send an email to our support team as soon as possible, to review your case individually

Bear in mind that right after you submit the payment, your order is automatically launched to production on the factory. Raw leather is hand-cut during the first 48 hours, and sole unit also starts to be manufactured. Production process continues until the pair is finished after 3-5 weeks.

If you would like to withdraw your order right after it has been placed, please, contact us immediately, and we will try to stop the production without incurring in any costs.

However, if you want to cancel an order that has already started production, you can still do it, however, bear in mind that there is a cancellation fee of 50-100 EUR, to account for used materials and labour work.

You will receive a full refund of the original paid amount, excluding the cancellation fee, including the shipping costs.

Sale items or purchases made with promotion / voucher codes will be refunded with in-store credit only.

We do our very best to make sure all our images are true to the actual product you are purchasing but we cannot guarantee a perfect match every time due to almost limitless variations in home monitor set ups.

Also, we work with natural materials (leather hides), each leather hide can vary and accept antiques creams/dyes differently, a slight colour variation may accrue, this is out of our control, we do our best to keep this as consistent as possible.
