Create Custom Shoes for 35,000 Yen with "MARNON"
Introducing a brand that I want you to know not only when choosing bridal shoes but also when selecting everyday shoes ♡
It’s the brand "MARNON" which makes custom shoes*
➡ Check MARNON's website here ♡
I think most people have never made custom shoes...
✅ You can customize the design and materials to your liking
✅ You can choose the shape of the toe and the heel height
✅ Shoes can be made to fit your feet perfectly (even for those with foot size differences ♡)
✅ Made by artisans at a domestic atelier
✅ Starting at 35,000 yen, surprisingly affordable
There are so many attractive features!
Especially for bridal shoes, it's crucial to choose your favorite shoes in a way that reflects your individuality since they will be captured in photos.
Because, isn't choosing shoes difficult...?
✅ You admire high-end brands, but they are around 100,000 to 200,000 yen.... out of reach.
✅ Designs with beads or lace that look bridal often aren't practical for other occasions (like everyday wear or weddings as a guest).
✅ With everyday brands priced around 10,000 to 20,000 yen, there isn't much special feeling when the insole brand name appears in photos...!
Amidst my various conflicts, I think it’s incredibly appealing that "I can create my own special shoes for around 35,000 yen"...
(You can also add engravings like this!)
In fact, I wondered if there are other brands that can make custom shoes, but I couldn't find any that offer such a variety of colors, materials, and styles for around 40,000 yen. Many reviews mentioned that it’s a fantastic deal to have custom shoes made with this quality and service at this price.
Actually, I've also placed an order recently (expected completion by the end of November ♡) so I'll introduce the ordering flow*
You can order shoes at permanent stores, pop-ups, or online ♡
MARNON's custom shoes can be ordered online or at pop-ups held nationwide*
(I ordered at a pop-up in Omotesando ♡)
➡ Latest POP UP information here
If you're worried about ordering online and want to see the actual product, you can request the "Try-on Set Lending Service," which sends shoes, heels, and leather samples to your home, allowing you to see them in person before ordering.
Choose from 13 different shapes 💍
MARNON offers 13 different shapes to choose from ♡
You can order plain pumps, Oxford shoes, loafers, sandals, and boots*
You can simulate the shoe shape, heel height, materials, and insole color online👞👠
It’s fun to just click through and have your ideal shoes come to life ♡
You can create shoes like these ♡
They can also measure your feet!
At the store or pop-up, getting your feet measured in 3D is a fantastic feature!
Just put your foot into this lime-green machine...
And in no time (about 15 seconds!), your feet will be measured*
Based on the data from the 3D scan, the staff will discuss points on how to choose shoes.
I thought I had wide feet (because I always feel my pinky and big toe base bumping against each other when I wear heels...), but I was actually told that I have narrow feet.
It's so interesting to learn about your foot's characteristics from a professional’s perspective, as I believed I had broad feet because of the pain from bumping toes...
This kind of insight into your foot's characteristics is quite beneficial ♡
At MARNON, using the measured data, they will adjust to create custom-sized shoes based on:
✅ Shoe size (if your right and left feet are different sizes, they can make them each fit!)
✅ Foot width (normal or wide)
✅ Adjusting for comfort with cushioning (optional)
All these are managed to create your perfect fitting shoes ♡
Stuck in choosing from over 100 materials...!
MARNON offers more than 100 types of materials for your custom shoes.
With materials like patent leather, smooth leather, suede, glitter, python, and check patterns, it can get overwhelming!
Lace remains a solid favorite for bridal shoes ♡
Glitter shoes come in a myriad of colors too!
Recently, it seems more people are opting for Oxford shoes as bridal shoes ♡
They look chic and are also easy to use for everyday wear*
For seaside pre-wedding photos, shiny gold or silver sandals, for weddings, lace or glitter heels, and for after-parties, unique Oxfords... it's tempting to order numerous pairs ♡
Even if you order three pairs, it’s around 100,000 yen (pumps about 35,000 yen, Oxfords about 40,000 yen, sandals about 25,000 yen), which is just the price for one high-end pair*
【2 Months Later】 The custom shoes have arrived!
After ordering at the POP UP, it has been exactly two months.
The shoes I requested have arrived! ♡
Upon opening the box, I was instantly uplifted by the stylishly colored shoe box and cushioning paper✨
With excitement, I opened the lid of the shoe box ♡
The first pair I ordered is...
A pair of patent leather Oxford shoes with tassels ♡
I made them completely black to match easily with black tights, but shiny silver or gold could also be chosen or combined.
(So I chose gold for the tassels!)
The second pair I ordered is...
Beige pumps.
This color is great for attending weddings and is easy to wear for everyday outings.
The shape is elegant, and they seem perfect for enhancing one's beauty when worn ♡
Bridal shoes should be custom-made ♡
For around 35,000 yen, you can create custom shoes at "MARNON" ♡
There's also a gift card option where you can choose the amount, making it perfect for friends (imagine pooling together to gift someone around 40,000 yen; they would be thrilled).
I've seen tweets of husbands surprising their wives with this gift for anniversaries! Isn't that just enviable....??
The delivery time after ordering is approximately 60 days. Make sure to order well in advance, calculated from the date you want to use the shoes*
