How is your company even competitive compared to other up-and-comers (Jack Erwin, Beckett Simonon, etc) that do exactly that but for lower prices? Really, your shoes are pretty pricey ($225). For that price, I EXPECT to have some service (with the middle man if it needs to be). Some questions that I really needed the answers to before I would even consider making a purchase: - Can I send back my shoes to be recrafted? - Do you offer any warranty (like a year or something?) You mention 100 days if I have not worn them. Regular $30 shoes last even longer, so 100 days is really not enough. - Some of the products that I looked at don't mention what type of leather you use. That's a bad sign. I expect it to be full grain leather. Otherwise, it's probably fake. - What stitching do you use? From pictures (nice design btw) I can tell that it's Goodyear construction but it needs to be explicitly mentioned. From my own experience, custom made shoes take forever to complete. First, you need to get enough people to sign up for a specific style, then you need to produce them, and then you send it out. Good luck with it -- I have also been considering opening up a shoe making business. Great to see such company in YC.
