Q: How can you offer such a low cost product?

Over heads are kept to a minimum by constantly sourcing materials at the best price we can find and passing the savings onto the customer. The company directors are hands on and are directly involved with the manufacturing process.
Q: Which type of footwear is suitable for adaptatations?
A: The best type of footwear for adaptation would be a sturdily constructed shoe with a broad heel and a relatively thick sole. Many trainers are also suitable. We endeavor to adapt all types of footwear, however sometimes the construction of the shoe makes adaptation impossible. Ladies stiletto heels and wellington boots are unsuitable for adaptation.
