Production Policy
Production Policy & Order Guidelines
MensItalianShoes.com offers a selective assortment of handcrafted, made-to-order, custom, special-order, and supplier-produced men’s footwear. Please review the guidelines below before placing an order so that production expectations, timing, and eligibility are clear.
General Terms
This policy applies to merchandise identified on the product page, order confirmation, invoice, or written customer-service communication as made-to-order, custom, production, special-order, personalized, altered, exotic-skin, supplier-produced, imported, or customer-specific.
Product-specific terms and written order confirmations supplement this policy. When a product page states a more specific production estimate or eligibility condition, that term applies to the item.
Important Notice
Notice: If an item is required by a specific date, please contact customer service before ordering. Production estimates are not guaranteed delivery dates. Artisan schedules, material availability, supplier capacity, quality-control review, customs, holidays, or transportation interruptions may cause delays.
Order Confirmation, Cancellations & Modifications
For made-to-order, custom, production, personalized, or special-order items, cancellation or modification requests must be submitted within twenty-four (24) hours from the time the order is placed.
After this grace period, cancellation or modification may no longer be available once the order has been confirmed, auto-processed, assigned to an artisan or supplier, had materials reserved, or entered production.
If a later cancellation is approved before the order becomes non-cancellable, a five percent (5%) processing and cancellation fee may apply.
The fee does not apply where prohibited by law or when MensItalianShoes.com cannot fulfill the order within a required or expressly promised timeline.
Payment & Returns
Full payment is required before production or special fulfillment begins unless MensItalianShoes.com approves different terms in writing. A pending authorization, incomplete payment, or failed verification does not place an item into production.
Custom, made-to-order, personalized, monogrammed, altered, customer-specific, and other production merchandise may be final sale after the applicable cancellation period or once production begins. Any expressly approved return remains subject to authorization, inspection, original-condition requirements, product-specific terms, and the published return and refund policies.
Final Sale Production Items
Items identified as final sale are not eligible for return, exchange, refund, or store credit except where required by law or expressly approved by MensItalianShoes.com.
If an item is incorrect, damaged in transit, or has a confirmed manufacturer defect upon delivery, the customer must contact MensItalianShoes.com within two (2) calendar days. Photographs, packaging, shipping materials, and product documentation may be required before a resolution is approved.
Production Timelines
The estimated production or fulfillment period may appear on the product page, invoice, order confirmation, or written customer-service communication. An estimate begins only after payment, verification, measurements, customization selections, and all other required information are complete.
All stated timelines are estimates and may be adjusted because of artisan schedules, material scarcity, supplier delays, quality-control review, import processing, customs, holidays, or transportation conditions. MensItalianShoes.com will communicate material changes when updated information becomes available.
Handcrafted Characteristics
Hand finishing, natural leather grain, exotic-skin scale pattern, patina, color depth, stitching, and other artisan details may vary slightly from photographs or samples. These natural and handcrafted variations are part of the character of the merchandise and are not defects unless MensItalianShoes.com determines otherwise.
Customer Responsibility
Customers must review and confirm size, color, material, personalization, measurements, delivery information, and all other selections before submitting the order. Changes requested after confirmation may not be possible and may require additional fees or production time.
Customers are responsible for responding promptly to verification, measurement, customization, and order-confirmation requests. Production may not begin until all required information has been received and approved.
