As a custom boot or shoe maker have you ever been frustrated by the variety of measurements you
will see on different lasts, even when those lasts are made for the same type of footwear and
stamped with the same size? There's a reason for the discrepancies. Unless you had the last
specifically developed to your specifications, it was probably developed for a production shoe or boot
company and each company has its own "fit profile", meaning they have (or at least used to have)
lasts developed with certain fit features to maintain a perceived fit throughout their style lines.
Therefore, one company's size 9D might be shorter or longer than a 9D from another company and
any number of differences could be found in the girth and width measurements.
With OLGA®, our Online Last Grading Application, you can now be confident in the measurements
on a standard size when you order it from Global Footwear Solutions even if you've never seen any
size on that style before. By entering the measurements of your customer's foot on up to nine key fit
points, you can immediately see a list of sizes that best match your needs and also see how much
build up or grinding off you will need to do in order to achieve the fit you are looking for.
You can print the list of sizes for review later on and best of all you will receive a discount of $15 for
each pair you order using OLGA®. There is also NO CHARGE for using the system. Why would I
have an application like this developed if I were not going to charge for it and in fact, discount the
lasts that are purchased using OLGA®? Simple. If we have a couple of conversations or exchange a
few emails about your order or if you send me tracings, a Pedograph, and measurements and ask
me to tell you the best size to use, I will end up spending more time on the single pair order than I
can possibly justify if I want to make a profit. With OLGA® you do the research with just a few
keystrokes and you know exactly what you are getting when the last arrives. It also speeds up
delivery times and I know you will appreciate that. Because, if you enter the proper data and review
the results correctly, you will know what you have to do to the last even before it arrives, I'm sure you
will be satisfied and will want to use OLGA® the next time you need a last.
