Additional Information

  • We are unable to lift Nike Air and Ecco brand shoes due to the air bladder inside the soles.

  • Only the shoe that needs correction should be sent. The exception is leather soled shoes.

  • Leather soled shoes must be sent in pairs. Please be sure to clearly label the shoe needing adjustment.

  • We take the shoes and split the sole so that the lift can be placed above the original sole. By doing so you are walking on the original sole of both shoes. This has the advantage of giving both shoes the identical feel and grip. This is not only safer but allows both shoes to wear at the same rate thereby increasing the life of the shoes.

  • Tie-on shoes are preferred to slip-ons with lifts over 1/2 inch in height. We will do slip-on shoes with lifts greater than 1/2 inch but please be aware that the adjusted shoe will tend to slip off your heel and will be less comfortable to wear.

  • For full sole lifts, we roll the toe (taper the lift at the toe) so when you are taking a step, the shoe will naturally follow along with your foot.

  • If the soling material does not match the original sole, we will color the lift so that it blends in with the original material as closely as possible.

  • On lifts of 1-1/2 inch and over, we remove plugs from the inside of the lift, thereby lightening the weight of the correction and making the shoe more comfortable to wear. We use a crepe material that does not crush down and is unaffected by the removal of the plugs.
