I like your shoes and I'm ready to make mine

those shoes are ugly you need to get a new disigner

damn lady you make really ugly shoes

Omg those are possibly the ugliest shoes i have ever seen. get help, fast.

is your name rainbow bright? cause those are just some hideous colors on those funky sneakers.....yukk

Hey those shoes are awesome. They are very unique and so you obviously don't care what people think. Good plan! Wear what you want and don't care what others think and say. Plus doing it you way is fun and you definetly get some worth-while reactions. I wanted to do the whole design your own shoe thing but that website isn't working. Bummer

Thanks, Sarah! I was going for the unique look. I wanted shoes that looked cool but were very different from what you would find in stores.

I hope the non-functioning website doesn't mean the company is out of business. Soon I will need to order more shoes.

you are stupid! i have green bean sized hemmoroids that are smarter than you! and way less gay(despite being constantly rubbed with medicated pads) "oh thats soothing!!!"

Well I wouldn't wear those particular shoes, but I think it's really cool that you can create your own! lol that'd make it easier to match a multitude of outfits instead of having 1 pair of red shoes, blue shoes, black shoes- Keep doin' what you're doin' and enjoy :-) Rock on and stay frosty!

Those are the ugliest shoes I have ever seen In my whole life.

those shoes stink

this is a mean site with kool shoes and now i wont to make my own

The website doesnt work silly! :)

Hey, I think that those are the coolest shoes ever. I don't care what other people say about them. They are very unique and you are an individual and I am like that to. I think they are the hottest things ever!!

Hi,
My daughter is looking to design her own shoes, too, and yours are great. Only thing is, we can't seem to access the website -- do you know if they're still in business?? Please email me if you have any info, as we'd love to order a pair for this school year.
Thanks so much.

those shoes suck!!! all i can say is "yuck"!

wow, these are getting quite a lot of feedback. most of it from kids who can't spell (how are they supposed to design their own shoes? i hope that company has helpers for the seriously dumb, or who have suffered severe brain injury), but for what it's worth i think your shoes are cool.

you know how much i love things that don't match. sometimes things get so far from matching that they actually get back to matching. there is a very complicated algorithm that proves this, that i won't go into now, but trust me. these shoes are cool.

What's spelling got to do with intelligence? Those shoes are a bit too 80's for my liking?

“Intelligence is nothing if not an institutionalized black market in perishable commodities” (John le Carré).

Wow, Snozzle and Receptionista, how did you both end up here?

Receptionista, I think a lot of these people get here by searching for the Customatix site, which has since gone out of business. Then they get frustrated and take it out on me. You're right about the matching. I quickly saw that I wouldn't be able to create a unique matching design that would be better than the stuff you can already get in stores, so I went for complete non-matching. It took me three days to get the design just right. It was very hard to mismatch everything. Those shoes get lots of compliments.

Snozzle, you mean they're retro? Now I can tell everyone who asks where I got them that they're vintage.

Yeah, vintage. Retro is cool, so i guess i need to up-the-odds for my coolness level? You mean you wear these? OH my GOD........Excellent!
