Custom Made Wood Platform Shoes

Finding Custom Made Wood Platform Shoes

Finding someone who will build a pair of shoes by hand can take a lot of time. You’re more likely to find specialized Web sites that will customize shoes for you, based on models they already make.

One such site is Eleven East, which makes extremely intense platform shoes. Their wood shoes are all genuine wood or cork. Some of the heels feature intricate and beautiful carvings, making them look like a piece of medieval furniture. You can have nearly any of their stock customized by color and heel height. There is a long list of colors and patterns from which to choose for your uppers, including glitter, leopard print, zebra print, camouflage, mirror and hologram. You are going to end up with amazing shoes whether you opt for a 4-inch heel or an Amazonian 8-inch heel. Eleven East can also customize the width, which is a boon for women with narrow or wide feet. They are happy to help with any questions or concerns.

You can customize or get custom made wood platform shoes at Shoes for Stars. They mostly just have cork rather than wood, but you can talk to them about your interests and see what they can do to accommodate you. They can also make sexy shoes for odd sizes, or feet with particular needs, like orthopedics. Their idea is that you should look and feel like a star in your fabulous shoes.

More customization can be done at Hot Stuff Shoes, which offers intricately carved wood platforms that are reminiscent of the shoes worn by Venetian courtesans in the 15th century. The information about custom orders is not very clear on the site, but you can contact them with questions.

While you can’t actually customize the shoes at Heels for You, each one is made to order, so you can at least feel confident that they will be tailored to your own unique foot.

Traditional Custom Made Wood Platform Shoes

While there are few outlets for getting traditional shoes custom made, you can find some that will customize a shoe for you. You may even be able to do a little customization yourself, depending on the shoe and your creativity.

The traditional Dutch clog was built on a low wood platform and wood lasts still form the base of the custom shoes made by Multnomah Leather Shop. It takes two to three weeks to have an order filled, but the prices are not much more than you would pay retail for a good clog. You can choose from a variety of colors and patterns to guarantee an eye-catching and comfortable shoe. Multnomah has been hand-crafting clogs since 1938, so you can also feel confident in the quality.

If you’re looking for something more Dutch and yet more you, go to Customized Clogs. You can get hand-painted, custom-painted and air brushed wooden clogs in whatever design you like. The prices will vary according to the complexity, but you can discuss it all with them before placing your order.

Japonic has traditional wooden shoes for Geishas with varied bow colors. You could easily modify or augment these as you like.

Finally, look for someone who builds shoes for the theater or films. These will likely be very expensive, but you are sure to get exactly what you want.
