Excellent! Seriously considering some as a birthday treat when the time comes around...
I have a pair of Devious knee high ballet boots that have seen quite a lot of wear and need replacing. I could wear them for extended periods of time but walking was limited to a few minutes at a time - though I could just about walk around in them unaided if my feet/legs weren't tired. I imagine the block heel style should be easier to walk in and distribute the force a bit better!
So I guess delivery is about 6 weeks from ordering - seems right for made to order + sea shipping.

I have the Devious boots, too. The toe-box is too soft, so a lot of weight rests on the big toe. With the new boots, the weight is distributed across the whole foot.
They took 7 weeks from placing the order to shipping. That's totally fine imho...
So here are some photos:
I have re-laced them in a corset-style now, which makes them a lot easier to put on and I can lace them tighter.
The keys will go into the kitchen-safe for a couple of hours once I'm sure, that they are not too tight now...

I thought, I'd practice a bit before I throw away the keys 😁
I wore them 7 hrs yesterday until my toes hurt a bit. Shouldn't take long until I can go overnight...
