No cases of infection were found in any of Girotti’s workers. All measures are taken to prevent the virus. All workplaces are disinfected several times a day, and the temperature of all employees is checked at the beginning and end of the working day.

According to the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) “there is no evidence to support that transmission of COVID-19 associated with imported goods”. This means the virus cannot be transferred to the shoes.

Yes. We have prepared for you many great designer’s propositions. If you like any of them, you can go and order it directly just like in traditional online shops. Unlike mass production though, GIROTTI shoes are not manufactured in advance and then sold but instead are made by hand only upon receiving an order.

Yes. Use the Edit Design option and change only those shoe details that you want.

No. Shoe customization is absolutely free. You can change the materials, the colors, the soles, the accessories, add a monogram or inscription on the shoes without changing the initial price of selected shoes at all.

The price of a model is fixed for the selected type of shoe. All it means is that price will change only if you switch from one certain type of shoe to another (for instance, from ankle boots to high boots).

You can change the design of every model shown in our catalogue, either in whole or in part. Depending on the selected type of shoes, you can change the material and color of the upper or the lining or the sole, or change the height or type of the heel or platform, or modify the seams, perforations, laces and other decorative details of the shoe … You are also given the option to add a monogram or a brief personal inscription to your shoes!

All options for modifying the design and customized features of your shoes will be available to you after you load the model you have selected in the 3D configurator.

By using the free inscription option you have the opportunity to additionally customize your shoes by adding a monogram and/or brief inscription of your choice.

No, it is absolutely free.

We can add initials (monogram) on the shoe upper and a longer “invisible” inscription, both inside, on the inner sole, and outside, on the outer sole of the shoes.

At a special place on the model you have selected we can add your initials – up to 2 capital letters (with or without points after or in-between). The place, as well as the particular method of engraving – by perforation, embroidery or laser engraving, will depend on the selected model.

Our designers will strictly monitor that the inscription be “written” to the best way possible to go with the shoes vision. Normally, it is placed at the back (in the area of the heel) using non-contrasting color similar to the color of shoes.

If adding a monogram to the shoes would give them classy look, then an inscription on their inner and/or outer sole will turn them into unique object of sentimental value carrying your personal message.

An inspiring motto, the name of a beloved person, a memorable date or anything else you want up to 26 symbols may be engraved on both the inner and/or outer sole of your favorite shoes, again absolutely free.

Yes! Give us your initials and a text, and leave the rest to us!

If you want to take advantage of only one type of inscription, fill in only the field/fields for the type of inscription you want, and leave the other field blank.

You can get a good idea how your inscription will look like from the illustrations displayed in the free inscription option window.
