What is the sample cost and lead time for custom shoes?
Samples are 1-5 pairs per style, produced in 7-14 days, and the sample fee is credited back against your bulk order - so on a confirmed order a sample effectively costs nothing.
Why sample first
- Locks fit, last, upper, materials, colourways and logo placement.
- Becomes the quality reference for the full run.
- Air delivery is typically 3-5 days worldwide.
What to send
A reference photo, a competitor link or a tech pack. We quote the exact sample cost before you commit, and the fee returns against your bulk order.
