Footwear is Science

Absolutely yes, as a matter of fact we provide this service for quite a few footwear brands, providing patterns, assembly orders, tooling, CAD/CAM operations, on-site training for the staff.

It is possible. For an accurate quote, pls contact us. To be fair: a new product needs a lot of product development work, such as resourcing, pattern making, prototyping-testing, and so on, before it can hit production. We are happy to inform you about this process, just give us a call! 

Indeed, it is! As a sample factory, we are fully equipped with the machinery and expertise to complete such tasks, as we have done many times in the past for movies and TV series. These types of footwear present a great challenge, which we certainly love and are happy to assist with.

Unfortunately, we’re unable to take on this type of work. We want to be upfront and transparent about our limitations. Orthopedic work requires specialized licenses, insurance, and expertise that we currently don’t possess. 

Sometimes we do. Please follow us on social media, so you will be aware when we offer an apprentice position.

Absolutely and happy to do so! We also offer complete footwear technical curriculums. Please contact us.

We offer a lot of supplies at zegzug.com. 

It is hard to estimate without all parameters known, but generally speaking: that could be a substantial amount of money. You should be able to finance your company for a year without making profit, paying rent, salaries, materials, development, marketing, etc.  

Yes, there are plenty! We published some ourselves about grading, Caligola CAD, The stitchdown construction, but there are multiple books are available online.

Wedding shoes hold a unique and significant place in such a special occasion, and for several reasons, we prefer not to take on these projects.

We don't offer free internships as of now. 

Unfortunately, we can't. However, in some cases, the companies we assist with recruitment do offer this option, and we always highlight that possibility in the job ad.

Unfortunately, we don’t offer repair or alteration services, as our focus is solely on crafting new shoes. It’s important to recognize that shoe repair is a specialized trade, requiring its own unique set of skills, tools, and machinery. Cobblers are highly skilled professionals who excel in restoring and maintaining footwear, and their craft is distinctly different from shoemaking. We hold their work in high regard and recommend reaching out to a qualified cobbler for any repair needs.

We routinely offer our NDA to new customers, but at the same time, we always point out the controversies surrounding these NDAs to ensure complete transparency.

We surely can and we actually do more: educating skilled workers, pattern engineers, product developers, makers.
