Place your order
Please read through the steps below to get your items in our queue.
- Write a short note for each pair/item you’d like looked at, include what you want addressed, any color or material preferences, concerns, and need-to-knows about the items. Please include your name and contact information.
- Put the items in a box, tote, paper bag, etc.
- Decide if you are going to bring the items to Derek’s or ship to Derek’s.
- After the quarantine period, we will disinfect the soles of all shoes, and read your notes carefully. We will also look over the items thoroughly, and note of any additional issue.
- We will reach out to do a consultation about your repairs, confirming how much the work will cost and how long it will take. We will also confirm how the items will be returned to you: curbside pickup or shipping
- If you approve the work during the consultation, we will start working right away. If the work is not approved, we’ll make a plan to get your items back to you in a timely manner.
- We will reunite you with your items after the work is completed. If picking up curbside, we will take the full balance due (cash, check, card) during your pickup. If we are shipping your items, we will send an email invoice for the order, due within 7 days of receipt of your items (or call the shop, and we can take your payment over the phone).

At Derek’s we offer two types of orthopedic lift designs. First, with a Lift on Top, we will add the lift to the outermost layer of the existing sole.
The second orthopedic lift design is an Integrated Lift, where we separate the existing sole material and insert the lift in between.
Please call the shop or stop by with the shoe you want augmented for more information.
