What kind of footwear are we fitting today?

This is the first question a real shop would ask. Choose the path closest to what you need, then the fitting counter will narrow the style wall before asking for size, leather, sole, and finish details.

How custom ordering works

Every choice is confirmed before checkout.

1

Pick the footwear path

Boots, shoes, sandals, or faire footwear. The style wall narrows immediately.

2

Build the pair

Swatches, help links, and conditional fields keep complex options understandable.

3

Confirm the bench ticket

The summary shows selections, paid add-ons, lead time, and custom-order language before checkout.

Cobbler-led fitting counter

Now let’s fit the pair.

Choose the style, answer the fit questions, compare leather and sole options, then review the workshop ticket before checkout.

Question 01 What will you wear them for?

Daily walking, faire days, costume accuracy, indoor comfort, or a known Nativearth replacement.

Question 02 How should they fit?

Street size, Nativearth size, intended use, and special notes travel with the order.

Question 03 How should they be built?

Leather, sole, hardware, add-ons, price, lead time, and confirmation language stay visible.

Implementation QA: current catalog coverage

Migration control

All current Nativearth products are accounted for.

This is intentionally collapsed for buyers. It exists so the rebuild does not lose product pages, galleries, or migration coverage while the customer experience stays focused on fitting shoes.

Sizing confidence

Made for your feet, not just your cart.

Footwear product pages should keep measuring guidance close to the purchase decision. Buyers can compare street size to Nativearth size, open a foot-tracing guide, and add notes before checkout.

Street size plus Nativearth size

Both fields are captured on the order, reducing ambiguity for semi-custom and custom work.

Special fit notes

Customers can share high arches, narrow heels, prior repairs, or faire-use needs before the build ticket is created.

Clarification workflow

Orders can move into Needs Customer Clarification when sizing or color choices need review.

Leather and sole options

Swatches replace uncertainty.

Production commerce should use the real swatch and sole images already present on Nativearth.net. This build binds option choices to Nativearth media so leather, sole, and product examples stay grounded in the workshop's real catalog.

Leather colors

Bullhide, smooth leather, and specialty colors can be reused across boots, shoes, sandals, bags, and straps.

Sole comparison

Plain leather, Vibram, and terrain-specific soles should show use case, price change, and lead-time effect.

Hardware and laces

Buttons, buckles, laces, and finish details live as reusable option groups rather than one-off product fields.

Faire-tested craft

Old-world construction with modern buying clarity.

The brand system should bring the workshop story into the product page: four generations of cobbler knowledge, direct responsibility for every stitch, custom tracing, custom casts, and semi-custom work.

"The right rebuild does not hide complexity. It translates it into a confident sequence that protects the customer and the workshop."

Care and repairs

The relationship continues after checkout.

Order confirmation, care instructions, production updates, shipment, and review requests should be automated without losing the handmade voice.

Cart and checkout styling

Custom-order language follows the order.
