Designing My Own Shoes with Shoes of Prey

Have you ever wished that you could custom design your own shoes? I certainly have and I'm excited to tell you that I had the chance to actually do this recently.

I cannot tell you how many times I have seen a shoe and thought. Oh, if only it was a different ____ (fill in the blank - color, size, height, heel, material, etc). Well I am here to tell you that now you can design your own shoes!

 

How to Design Your Own Shoes

The process starts with an iPad and a 3D Designer program. You start with the style of the shoe that you would like.

 

I really wanted a wedge shoe for spring and summer travel. Something with a little heel, but not too high. So I started the process there. Once I selected the style, it was time to decide on which material to use. This was a little tough because there are so many colors and materials to choose from.

Luckily, with a little help from the Nordstrom stylest in the department, I opted for a navy leather.

Then I actually get to pick what style of heel of which I want. I wanted a bit of a lower wedge so that it would be comfortable for travel. Now I could have ordered cork or this cute polka dot style here, but I decided to change it up.

 

I would like to thank Shoes of Prey for the opportunity to design my own shoes. All opinions and shoe design choices are mine. I only share things I love and would recommend with you.
