Long gone are the days of basic white pumps and black oxfords. Today’s brides and grooms are bringing their wedding style down to the tips of their toes with chic, colorful shoes. But no footwear is quite as personalized as a Figgie Shoe.
The one-of-a-kind designs are hand-painted onto the shoe of your choice (they even will order the shoe for you so you don’t have to pay extra shipping). Any style or color will work, but note that some finishes are not ideal. Patent leather and suede are limited to black and white art. Matte, synthetic leather is recommended.
Deborah, the talented artist behind the company, then talks with you about the images you want depicted, from a meaningful location, wedding date, names … the options are open to your imagination. Shoes can also be embellished with jewels, feathers, sequins or anything else that your heart desires (and will glue to a shoe).
Pricing for these works of art begins at $250, and includes eight to 12 personal items or texts in classic black and white. Fifty dollars will give you two colors, with additional shades costing $10 each, while a touch of sparkle throughout the design is $20. Add-ons, such as brooches, crystal heels and colored soles are quoted individually.
And be sure to take a peek at their online gallery, which is filled with inspiration from love letters scrolled onto stilettos to peacock-inspired flats to colorful Chucks.
