Wow.
Oh, cool.
I was like . . . Okay, that would be nice. But it was beyond my expectations.
In this video, you’ll see honest reviews of three custom shoe types offered by Printful.
We have a special guest on set today that will help our reviewers design
custom shoes with Printful’s Design Maker. Please, introduce yourself!
Hi, I’m Evita. I’m a designer from Printful and I’m going to be helping with designing the shoes.
Evita has prepared two crucial tips that you should keep in mind when designing your own shoes.
I think patterns and colorful shapes are good for designing shoes. Try not to put everything
on one shoe. Maybe try to do different variations and you’ll end up having a collection of shoes.
Let’s take a quick look at what type of designs our testers came up with.
I’m going to put my logo on the back of the shoe.
I’d like, for example, the shoe to be plain, but with maybe some little stripes.
Actually, I think I’m going to go with creating my own pattern. I’m typically into plain designs.
Something that’s universal and that can go with anything and everything. But for this one,
since I do have the opportunity to choose some cool designs, I’m taking full advantage of it.
Okay, now’s the time that I have to plan how to survive the anxiety of waiting two
weeks for my shoes to arrive. But I think they’re going to be cool.
The shape and style of the Slip-On Canvas Shoes make them
suitable for almost every style and occasion.
These high-quality custom shoes have removable soft insoles and rubber outsoles,
and you have the option to add your branding to the insole.
To make sure your customers are super comfortable, these shoes come in sizes fitted for either men’s
or women’s feet. Please note that our shoes are set to US sizes by default.
The packaging actually is really surprising. I was really happy because the outside of the box
had a layer of some kind of foam material. It’s really nice because, unfortunately,
nowadays you always get very smashed packages. The second one that I never saw before, was on the
inside, there were solid blocks of foam. It’s also really, really, really nice.
The outside is very interesting because it’s smooth, but at the same time not too smooth.
So the fabric is not sensitive. It really feels like these are good quality, long-lasting shoes.
It’s perfectly glued, something that I always pay attention to when I’m buying shoes because,
sometimes while you move, these parts are ungluing while the shoes are still new.
The inside soles are also very nice, very comfortable. When you’re walking and the shoes
are bending, you don’t have the side structure, and the fabric kind of forcing your feet.
So they’re really nice and comfortable, although the back part here, in the beginning,
was hurting a lot because it’s hard. But after 2 hours, the feeling was already much nicer.
The slides have a cushioned faux leather upper strap, which you can customize with your design.
They have a textured footbed that makes a stroll around the beach or the pool very comfortable.
You have the option to also add your branding under the upper strap and on the shoebox lid.
They came in a standard shoe box, but the shoe box was way smaller than you typically imagine.
Oh cool. Allright. So here’s slide number one. The design is super cool and super vibrant. The
bottom of the shoe is a bit hard. So these could be used as great shower shoes. There’s
a great grip on the bottom. So you might not slip. Don’t quote me on it. If you’re clumsy,
then that’s on you. The top part I really love because it’s nice and soft.
The footbed is a bit squishy, so your foot feels really comfortable in them. I think, maybe for the
white bottom, I could choose the black one just because it’s a little bit more forgiving. If you
do step in some dirt, it might not be so visible right away. I did order a half a size bigger
just because my size wasn’t available, but I am happy I did because they fit perfectly.
They’re super easy to wear. Whether you’re wearing a sock,
whether you’re just barefoot, you can just slide right into them and get on your way.
The right shoes can elevate your whole look. With the Lace-Up Canvas Shoes,
it’s easy. The padded collar and tongue create a fresh, eye-catching silhouette,
while the soft insole gives you extra comfort when on the move. Put your logo on the box,
insole, and tongue of the shoe. Your brand won’t go unnoticed.
The shoes are very soft and very comfortable. At the same time,
they seem strong. I probably would go for a more straight design, something more solid in color.
Not so colorful pattern or not so dense pattern. I’d be ready to pay somewhere between €50 and €75.
Which shoes did you like most? My favorites were the lace-up canvas shoes for sure.
