Has anyone tried Shoes of Prey

Ann in New England

Not quite sure how I stumbled upon this place looking for nude, pointy-toe, low-heeled shoes, but I'm now fascinated. They are an Australian company that allows you to design your own shoes, basically from scratch.
In a few minutes of playing around, I designed a shoe that I am absolutely in love with. Not sure it's too spring-like, and it's certainly not the nude low heeled shoe I am (still) shopping for, but these shoes are all me.
I haven't hit the order button -- this may just be a whim that passes, or I may tweak the design further. But I do like the concept.

Oh, this looks like fun. They are in Nordstrom in San Francisco, also. Did you see that?

Cute design! I've gifted certificates for this company and the recipients were very happy with the product. They both ordered flats and they came with a few optional inserts for additional comfort customization. My only caution would be that the colors onscreen aren't perfect reflections, but this is true of any online shopping. I ended up returning a pair that was too neon. Great customer service through that process. All that to say, I recommend the company if you can't find what you're looking for and enjoy designing something custom.

I am so glad you posted this as I was going to do the same post. I had a ball playing shoe designer the other day and I am really tempted!
My concern is comfort.

Yes, I have ordered shoes from them and they are stunning. I kept mine simple and went for patent red pumps. They are the most beautiful pair of shoes. They are very classic but they are my go to shoe for weddings, cocktail parties etc. The workmanship is impeccable.

I haven't used them, but I believe that Jean of the blog Extra Petite and Kelly of the blog Alterations Needed have used this company. If you search their blogs, you might find some info.

Thanks for your input, everyone (and the love for my design!) I'm going to keep these in mind for fall shopping, as I'm now on SYC for the rest of spring/summer.
