In various different threads and posts some Toronto based members mentioned that Trend Custom Tailors were now offering bespoke shoes so I decided to investigate a little further. Below is the reply I got from Don Lee.
The price includes the last which is made in England with Springline being one of their suppliers.
The only 'review' of them I can find online is here.
Has any styleforum members tried them yet?
The price seems more than reasonable.
We do make bespoke shoes, our Cordwainer trained for four years in Italy before returning to Canada. his name is Peter Feeney . We do order custom lasts which are produced in England and they are based upon your own feet which are measured by mr. Feeney. You do have direct consultation time with mr. Feeney with regards to the design which is a very important part of your process and it continues throughout the commissioning of your shoes. You have choices of leathers from all over the world and the design is only limited to your imagination.The patterns are then made and kept for you towards further pairs. Our prices vary upon details and material used but generally speaking it starts at $600.00 Cdn.
