Lumos How's the quality? You know the name of the shoP?

Vixette... thanks... how's the quality and price?

[lumos]

hi, i have not made any shoes there myself so not sure about the quality. not sure about the name too, sorry

I bought one many years ago from my wedding. It was a silver shoe with diamond-fake ones of course. I think it cost abt $60. But that was 6 years ago.

The good thing is that you can chose the height and the design. So its good for matching gowns.

As for the quailty, 1 year after the wedding, I wanted to wear the shoe. Dont get much chance to wear such formal stuff...but the 'leather' has dried up, and the diamonds were rusty. Need i Say more?

BTW, I bought it from Leapin' Lizard

There's one inside, yes. Lady boss who wears glasses. Prices definitely above $100 if you want a copycat leather Bally.

[Sugarplum]

Is that for a pair of leather shoe?
is it the low $100 or the other end for a copy cat Bally?

Does anyone have the address of Leaping Lizards or the shop at Holland Village?

Btw, do they custom make court shoes? Cause I've got giant feet and my new job requires me to wear covered shoes.

TIA!

Sorry I'm real late. Leaping Lizard should be listed in the phone book. Many years ago, it's located near Golden Shoe. As for the HV shop, I really never took note of the shop name. Its shopfront is very typical of one of the old days. Mostly ladies' shoes, with some men's and children's sometimes displayed separately outside. It should be on the 3rd level, if not 2nd. Just ask if it's a bespectacled woman in her mid 40s Oh BTW, $100 is for a pair of leather shoes. You just have to show her which design you want to copy.

Thanks so much Glossie and Caramal Girl!

If I don't have the design of the shoe will they still be able to make it?

[Glossie]

Pictures will definitely help things. At least both sides have an idea how the shoes will turn out. I'm guessing they might have some of their own designs or those of their other customers, but better bring your own

The shop I mentioned about is in the HV Shopping Centre, the one which houses Cold Storage on the ground level.

Thanks Glossie!
I shall check out both shops prices before making a pair.
