WHY CNET ORTHOPEDIC

Modifications That Don’t Show

Dress shoes are about precision and presentation. Here’s how we deliver lifts that pass even close inspection.

Lift edges are color-matched and burnished to vanish into the original sole profile.

Leather Welt Specialists

A decade of Goodyear, Blake stitch, and Norvegese welt experience โ€” most shops can’t work with leather soles.

Polish-Ready Result

Your dress shoe still polishes, looks formal, and serves any occasion โ€” wedding to boardroom.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Dress Shoe Lift Questions

Click any question to expand the answer.

Will the modification be visible at a wedding or formal event?

No. Dress shoe lifts are our most discreet work โ€” color-matched, burnished, and finished to match the original sole profile completely.

Can you work on leather soles?

Yes. Leather sole modification is a specialty โ€” we have decade-plus experience with welted construction (Goodyear welt, Blake stitch, Norvegese).

Will the shoe still take polish?

Yes. The modified area accepts shoe polish identically to the original leather, and we deliver shoes ready to polish.

Can you modify expensive dress shoes (Allen Edmonds, Magnanni)?

Yes. We modify high-end dress shoes regularly. The work is identical to standard pairs; the precision is just more critical.

Will I lose the ability to resole later?

No. We work with the existing sole structure without preventing future resoling. Cobblers can resole the shoe as normal when the time comes.

Can you modify women’s dress heels?

Yes. We modify heel-styled dress shoes โ€” the lift is added at the heel base, maintaining the heel height balance you want.

Have a high-end dress shoe you’re worried about?

Send us a photo and we’ll review the construction before you ship โ€” at no charge.
