This is mainly because I have already envisioned how the shoe I want is....I just hace to find it. Cueros Matas recognizes the pain point of their customer: finding unique, well designed and high-quality shoes. As you walk past you can smell the leather and as you come closer, you can see the quality of their work. Cueros Mata only works with leather (although you can add jean or other fabric as details) and makes shoes "a tu medida" meaning, you can come in with a design and they can help you recreate it.

If you live in a different region they even ship! I would pass by and take a look or give them a call to ask about recreating your perfect shoe.
