Over-promised and under delivered

Over-promise, under deliver.
Over-priced in comparison to other custom-made shoes.
Took much more than 10 days to arrive. Ordered on Black Friday and received in February the following year.

I followed the measuring guidelines, and tried the shoes they sent for size, but still ended up with the wrong size, and no return policy. I tried to explain to customer service that the thickness of the sole plays a role in the fitting, but the words fell on deaf ears. No return policy.

Regarding colors, I picked the colors based on the screen and ended up with shoes very different in color from what I ordered. The explanation, colors, can not be guaranteed.

As friendly and professional as the staff have been, the policies are rigid, and the processes need to be reviewed based on customer experience, but that is not the case.

I spent more than 500 euros on shoes that neither I nor anyone else will wear. Total waste of money and time and effort.

I would certainly not recommend them until they update their return policy, update their measuring guidelines and process, and put the customer experience up front.

They may not make money, or even lose money on the first pair of shoes, but they will for sure do on the next ten pairs.

But it seems management does not have the interest of repeat or satisfied customers.

Ciao Mohammed.
We are very sorry about the delays. The period of december was very particular due to bank holidays, this is why your order took a little bit longer for the shipping.
You received for free the try on shoes to choose the best size for you. We did everything on our side to let you select the size and be sure of which one put into producion.
Our customization service is based on a photorealistic 3D configurator. It is a rapresentation of the reality and the colors may vary due to the lightening and quality of the screen used. In addition, our shoes are handmade pair by pair, handbrushed and polished. Every shoes has different shades from the others.
Our customer care team did its best to meet your request. We also gift you with a discount coupon that you didn't accept. We take care of our clients and this why we have done everything on our side to satisfy everyone.
We remain avaliable for further explanation.

Top quality

I am giving 5 star rating for the quality of the leather, craftsmanship, the delivery ( received in 10 days) and the customer service. In terms of the price, in my opinion it's reasonable.

Hi Mahidhar, thank you so much for your kind words. It has been a pleasure to help you throughout the whole process. Hope to hear from you very soon!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Highly recommended. Brilliant service, excellent service.

Brilliant service throughout the COVID-19 crisis. Ordered on the 1st March and received on 24th, that was during the height of Italy's problems. Excellent communication. The quality of the shoes is exceptional and I am very pleased with them. The website forecast I'd need a size 7 (UK) but as my feet are broad I elected for 7.5. The shoes were tight at first as most new shoes are but gave after a very short while and are now very comfortable. There are not the cheapest but the quality justifies the price. Will definitely use again.

Not impressed with this shoe.

When I designed the show, I wanted the lug sole. I also thought the leather would be heavier. Neither of these are true. I don’t think the shoe will hold up to heavy use and harsh temperatures. Not worth the price.

We are sorry that you are not happy with the shoe you’ve designed. However our shoes are custom made, meaning that customers can pick their favorite leathers and soles. For your shoes, you have chosen a shiny calf leather (suitable for elegant looks, as we specify on site) and a sole called ‘micro light’ (which as the name suggests, it is not ideal for heavy use or harsh temperatures). We know that designing a shoe from zero can be difficult, that’s why we invite customers to always get in touch with us for style tips and advices to clear any doubts before purchasing!

Cheap materials, subpar craftsmanship, great return policy.

The materials of the shoe look and feel cheap. Craftsmanship looked poor as well. The delivery took 6 weeks not 4 weeks. The only positives were the return policy and speed of refund.

Dear Mr. Levirt,
We are sorry to hear your disappointment about the quality of your customised shoes. It would be useful to receive some pictures that we can review so we can come back to you with a more detailed feedback. Please note that all our shoes are made with premium leathers and by experienced hands. Our production is made in Marche region, inside traditional workshops having over 40 years of experience, the protectors of a 100 years old tradition: they shape the so-called “shoe valley” network, the Made in Italy footwear district which is our worldwide pride for shoe manufacturing.
Regarding the delivery, we are sorry you did not receive your package as promptly as you expected. We’re experiencing a large number of orders, which disrupted our normal delivery schedule and handcrafting processes. To serve you better and faster, we are busy expanding our staff.

My shoes from DIS are by far the best shoes I've ever own! The quality is superior to my other shoes that I have bought from Nordstrom, and cheaper! To be able to get a pair of high quality, custom made Italian shoes for CHEAPER then anything Nordstrom had is mind boggling. I highly recommend DIS. Every day I wear my monk straps I get compliments.
