Custom Shoes
Bill Crary, founder of Crary Shoes, has been crafting shoes by hand for over 47 years. As you may have noticed, shoemakers are difficult to find this day in age. Bill Crary is truly a dinosaur, one of the last of his kind. Fortunately, with the help of digital technology, there is a new wave of shoemaking at our fingertips. Crary Shoes uses Otabo's unique scanning process where over 200,000 data points are captured to create 3D digital models of your feet. Bill Crary uses his 46 years of experience to create a “last”, one for your left foot and one for your right. At Crary Shoes, the “last” is always first. The “last” is the foundation that the shoe is built on, so once this step is completed, your order should be ready within 4 - 6 weeks. The more complex your foot problems are, the more time it takes to make the “last”.
Applying the highest standards of shoemaking, your shoes are crafted using the finest leathers & materials from around the world.
When you come to Crary Shoes, you get the best of both worlds... over 46 years of expertise from Crary, combined with fine craftsmanship and the latest in digital technology.
