THE FOOTWEAR PROCESS

Video conference

It is helpful to use a video call in order to talk to potential clients and offer a remote fitting service.

Step 1 - Measures

Our first stage in creating bespoke orthopedic footwear is to make the last. The first step to making the last is to measure different points on the foot.

Step 2- Impression box

Once we have collected all the measures that we require, we use an impression foam box in order to capture the plantar surface of the foot. This enables us to copy this shape onto the last.

Step - Mock uppers

To ensure that the last works, we create a 'mock upper'. This is a rubber version of the shoe, at this stage we check all areas of the foot ensuring that the last is the correct shape and fit. At this point any changes can be made.

Step - final shoes

Once we have ensured the shape and the fit is correct we can take them through to finish. They are now your to take away and ENJOY!

*Please note that alterations are possible at this stage and all of our shoes can be repaired. Just let us know*
