(About) — D'FOOTPRINT
D'FOOTPRINT started with one person, one skill, and more demand than expected. Every pair of slippers, slides and custom pieces still starts and ends with the same set of hands.
(01) — The beginning
“It didn't start as a business. It started as something I just knew how to do well.”
— Founder, D'FOOTPRINT
It started the way most real things do — not with a business plan, but with a skill and a demand that kept growing. A few pairs made for people close by. Then more requests. Then orders from people who'd never met the maker but trusted what they'd seen.
The gap was obvious to anyone who'd bought footwear in Lagos: plenty of options, almost none you could trust. Market slippers that look sharp in the stall and fall apart before the month is out. Online sellers with no accountability.
So D'FOOTPRINT became a handmade footwear brand where every pair is made to order, by one person, with genuine care for how it holds up. There's no physical store — by design. Ordering directly means honest timelines, real updates, and someone who actually picks up.
One maker.
One standard.
Every time.
(02) — The craft & process
Choose from existing designs, submit a design to recreate, or request a custom edit. We confirm what's possible and give you an honest cost upfront.
Your pair goes into production. Every pair is made to order — nothing pulled off a shelf. Materials selected, construction checked, finishing done right.
Before anything leaves, it goes through a proper quality check. If something's off, it gets fixed here — not after you've received it.
Nationwide delivery across Nigeria. Updates at every stage. A real person reachable if anything needs sorting after delivery.
(03) — Why customers trust us
We tell you upfront how long your order will take. If something changes, you'll hear it from us first — not when you ask.
Sizing question, fit concern, post-delivery issue — reach out and it actually gets handled. That's part of what you're paying for.
What you see is what you get — and it holds up the same way for a first-time buyer as it does for a returning customer.
Questions before you order?
Sizing, custom requests, delivery — you're always talking to the same person who made, or will make, your pair.
