What Buyers Say About Working With HEVA
Use only feedback that can be traced to a real project or confirmed buyer conversation.
We wanted to create a back-to-school sneaker that covers sizes from small children to older children. To be honest, our biggest concern was that the seam where the mesh and PU were joined wouldn’t hold up to repeated bending. The prototypes looked good, but when we switched to a different size, the shoe’s shape changed. During prototyping, HEVA worked with us to adjust the last, the toe box, and the reinforcement locations for the lace holes, and they checked every stitch and bend one by one. Once the revised samples were approved, we were finally able to move forward with several key sizes according to the same set of specifications, which made the final design approval process much more reassuring.
We’re planning to add a pair of EVA perforated shoes to our spring/summer children’s collection. They look simple, but we’ve always been concerned that the small sizes might be too tight around the toes, and that the heel straps wouldn’t hold up to children repeatedly putting them on and taking them off. During the prototyping phase, HEVA first had us confirm the toe box space and the heel strap attachment method, then revised the design based on our feedback. When we saw the revised samples, clear solutions had been implemented for both of our biggest concerns, which made subsequent communication much easier.
