there are some shops in queensway and admiralty centre that i believe make shoes. i don't know how cheap they are though. i'll be passing them today and get the shop numbers for you.

The Happy Valley stores make shoes. Have friends who have made wedding and formal shoes from there. And they can make them in any color.

Thanks a lot Rani

Also try Cinderella in Admiralty Centre on the bottom floor. I've made 2 pairs of satin evening sandals so far, $600 each. You can bring in a design for him to make, but if it's got special beads or crystals etc. you'll have to get them yourself. There are other stores nearby Cinderella. One is called L3L3 and it's at least $1300 for a pair, but they make gorgeous replicas of Jimmy Choos etc.

I didn't look at any prices, but the shoes were very nice! There's also some tailors near there, fyi, that do alterations.
Good luck!
