Custom shoes

Hello everyone, I am wondering if anyone knows of a good company to purchase custom shoes from. I have an adult pt with club feet that have been corrected but still has significant deformity and different sized feet (Right 1st MTP fusion, medial sesamoidectomy, great toe IP fusion, metatarsal osteotomies 2-4, correction of hammer toe 2-4, correction of bunionette, Left ankle fusion.) We've been modifying commercial shoes for years for him, but they are very hit or miss in fit, require a million adjustments to get the rocker placed right, and are always too long in order to get the width he needs. I've used Apis in the past but have not been happy with the outcomes. The shoes never really look like they've been made to my measurements nor/casts sent. Anyone have a company that produces good quality work, without looking like a Frankenstein shoe? Would appreciate any thoughts/ideas!
