We make all types of footwear for a myriad of issues clients may have with their feet. 

Issues that may sometimes just be difficult or problematic feet, extending to more complex medical conditions and disabilities in some cases. 

 The aim is not only to alleviate these issues but to make footwear that looks like perfectly ‘regular’ shoes and boots. The terms ‘Orthopaedic’ or ‘Specialist’ footwear will often conjure up thoughts of unsightly footwear. This really is not the case and with care and attention to detail footwear that will accommodate all types of ailments can be modern and aesthetically pleasing. We source beautiful Italian and French leathers and components. Coupled with an individual design process for each client.  

Alongside the footwear we manufacture specialist insoles and orthotics. Compensating raises for leg length discrepancy. Rocker soles, wedges and floats. Leather soles, Rubber soles. Lightweight soles and heels.  

*Below is the information regarding processes for all of our bespoke footwear regardless of any medical issues that may need to be considered. However, with footwear for clients with problematic feet, each client's needs are uniquely different, and we assess and advise each individually and holistically. We consider all aspects of the footwear and how it will work for our clients in everyday life from comfort to durability.  

Please call or email if you would like to speak to a (friendly) shoemaker about our services. We are passionate about what we do and happy to help if we can.  

*All our footwear is made specifically to the client's measurements and requirements. We manufacture our bespoke lasts in our workshop overseen by the maker that would have taken the measurements and outlines. Each process thereafter is carried out in our workshop from pattern cutting, hand sewing and through to the final polish. 

 We work closely with the client to ascertain their needs, making each pair completely to an individual design.  

Some clients have very complex needs, and others simply require extra room for orthotics. Some require soft shoes; some require a great deal of support. We can recreate styles that have been previous favourites or assist in designing something completely new. 

Construction of the footwear would either be cemented, for lighter weight and casual footwear or welted construction. Welted is generally used for more formal footwear and is an option that offers repairability for many years due to its construction.  

Leather choices are vast and encompass every texture and hue. The standard aniline calf through to soft ‘orthopaedic’ leathers are available.
