- How much do custom shoes cost?
Custom shoes start at $300 (prices vary depending on amount of detail involved and cost of base shoe) plus shipping (yes, I ship internationally!). The price includes cost of the shoes.
A 50% deposit is required to place an order and will go towards the total cost of your shoes. The deposit must be paid before any rough sketches are drawn. Once you approve of the sketch the balance is due upfront through a secure intel invoice from Paypal. The invoice can be paid with a credit/debit card or a paypal account (a Paypal account is not required). I will not begin shoes until they are paid in full. Thank you for understanding.

How will I know if I like the sketch before it's applied to the shoes?
After completing the sketch we will correspond through email to ensure you like the sketch and placement. These are YOUR shoes, I want you to love them! Please don't hesitate to tell me what you'd like to add or remove from the sketch. Each pair is custom made and I prefer not to duplicate a design however, it may be similar to a previous pair (eg, sports logos, album covers/artwork, festival themes, character logos, etc).

How long do the shoes take?
Custom shoes can take up to 16 weeks depending on my current wait time. If your shoes are needed for a specific date please give me at least a 1 month notice. There will be a $75 rush fee for any shoes needed within in a 1-3 week period. Shipping is through the USPS Priority Mail and can take 2-5 business days for delivery. International shipping varies depending on location and can take between 6-20 business days. Cost of international shipping is calculated at time of shipping. (international customers will be billed separately for shipping fees)

What kind of paint do you use? Can I wash my shoes?
All of my shoes are hand painted with Angelus Brand acrylic fabric paint and sealed with an acrylic finisher. Fabric paint is different from traditional acrylic paint as its more flexible, has better adhesion to fabric, and is waterproof. The paint will not chip or crack and it is safe to spot clean painted areas with a damp cloth. There are typically 3+ coats of paint on each shoe so don't be afraid to rock them!
