Bespoke & Fit

When the fit is the commission.

Every SixKings pair is worked to the client’s foot. Bespoke & Fit is for when that asks for more: an orthotic to build around, two feet that differ, or a pair that starts from your own brief. It begins with a conversation at the bench.

Two reasons to begin here

A foot that needs more, or a pair of your own

Specialist fit

An orthotic to build around, one foot different from the other, or a fit no ready-made shoe has given you. The bench builds the pair around the device you already wear, alongside your clinician, never in place of them.

A commission of your own

A pair the catalogue doesn’t carry, starting from your brief rather than from one of our patterns. The bench tells you plainly what it can make before anything is agreed.

What the bench needs

Your measurements
Both feet, nine measurements each. The bench confirms them with you before anything is cut.
The device you wear
The orthotic itself, or its outline and depth. The bench needs its shape, not your health history: please keep health records off WhatsApp and email.
What you have in mind
A photograph, a pair you already own, or a few words. Any of the three builds, at one price: Blake-stitched, hand-welted or storm welt.

How it works

Four steps, at one bench

  1. 01

    A first conversation

    On WhatsApp, on a fitting call or in the Room. Tell the bench what you need. If you wear an orthotic, bring it, or send a photograph of it beside a tape.

    Message the bench
  2. 02

    Both feet, measured

    Nine measurements per foot, taken standing, in the socks you will wear: at the Atelier, or at home with the measuring guide.

    Your fit
  3. 03

    Your quote

    The price and the lead time, in writing, before you commit to anything. There is no premium for fit.

  4. 04

    Made, and kept

    Lasted by hand and sewn entirely by hand. For every specialist-fit commission, your last is kept for the pairs that follow.

Nothing is cut until your fit is confirmed.
