Wed Wednesday Features Shoes of Prey

Ladies, have you ever gotten frustrated because you can’t find that perfect shoe to set off that perfect outfit? Or you find the shoe but it doesn’t come in your size? Or you find the right color but wish the heel was higher or lower? Well, never fear Ladies, because now there is a way to control your own destiny by selecting, creating, and designing a fully customizable shoe. Seriously! Design your own shoes thanks to “Shoes of Prey”.

Founded in 2009, this Australian start up makes custom designed one-of-a-kind shoes exactly to your specification using the site’s simple online shoes-designer interface. You choose the heel height and style, the toe (peep toe, round toe, pointed toe, etc.), the fabric (leather, satin, snake skin, animal print, etc.), the color and any embellishments you like (bows, zippers, etc.). Your shoes are made by their craftsmen to measure before being shipped directly to you with a nice traveling shoe bag. (Ladies, word on the street is you love the shoe bags- who knew?) So if you want that yellow snake skin, 4 ½ inch platform heel with a peep toe in a size 8 ½, you got it! Or that sexy red satin sling back with the bow on the toe in a size 11, no problem! Best of all, each purchase comes with their guaranteed satisfaction policy that allows for a full refund within 30 days if the shoes don’t fit or meet your desires.

There are also a number of ready-made shoes already on the site, ready to ship if designing isn’t your thing. If your size isn’t in stock, they can always custom make a pair for you. They also offer a great option for those brides who want their bridesmaids’ shoes to be uniform, but one wears a size 7 narrow and one wears a size 12 wide. The prices range from $180 to $339 with shipping at $25. It may not be what you pay for most of your shoes but at least you have the satisfaction of knowing that NONE of your girlfriends, relatives or co-workers have that pair of shoes like you.

To the men out there, there’s an old folk tale that says you should never buy shoes for your significant other for fear of them walking out of your life. For those who believe this myth (including myself, but we’ll save that story for another post), Shoes of Prey offers gift certificates so they can pick out their own shoes.

A 2009 Crunchies award finalist as the best bootstrapped start up, Shoes of Prey is a growing example of the trend toward the customization of customer products that today’s consumer seem to crave.

So Christmas has come early in June, Ladies. Do something just for you and treat yourself to a new one-of-a-kind pair of shoes. Check out Shoe of Prey today.

Happy Web Wednesday!
