Hakob did a fantastic job from measurements to executions to testing. High quality and outstanding professionalism.

I had developed severe feet problems from ill fitting cycling shoes. After a year of riding in the poor fitting shoes, I started to develop a neuroma and experienced severe pain and hot spots at about 25 miles into my rides. I tried to ignore the pain and numbness, but couldnt. After several visits to a podiatrist, I realized that I needed new shoes and decided that I needed to INVEST in a custom pair of shoes for my health. I worked with Hakob at D2 Shoes. He listened and made my custom shoes with care and a fantastic orthotic. I can now ride 50+ miles without any discomfort and my feet have actually healed up. I recommend D2 Shoes. Hakob will support you through the fitting process all the way if you are not able to go to his shop. Your feet are worth the investment! And they look good too!

I have done a fair bit of business with Hakob over the last few years. I have had shoes repaired by Hakob and I just bought a new pair. The shoes are not cheap, but he does great work and has been very helpful. I ride alot and I am very happy with my D2 shoes. I have big feet, with high insteps, so custom has been the way to go for me for cycling shoes and ski boots.

This is my fourth pair of D2 shoes but my first pair that Hakob has made. These mountain bike shoes are the best pair of D2 shoes I own! Design is flawless fitting my feet perfectly. Cleat position is great and foot pain eradicated. Hakob is doing amazing work and anyone who is interested in a bespoke cycling shoe experience would be wise to select D2. You will not be disappointed!!

I have bunions and flat feet. My prior D2 shoes lasted about 8 years. Ordered a new pair a few months ago. Amazing fit and finish. Even better than my first pair! Happy feet and terrific responsive service from Hakob.

Before I tried a lot of orthotics for tennis shoes but I never been satisfied until I found D2Shoe company.I ordered orthotics to wear for my work and I am so blessed to find this shop because I am surgical nurse always had back and leg pain, but after wearing D2 orthotics I completely forgot about my back and leg pain. Thank you so much D2Shoe shop...Thank you for your job....Good Luck

Great shoes, Hakob made my shoes and they fit like second skin. I should of went this route and had custom shoes made when I first started cycling. Dont listen to any negative reviews some people are out just to make others look bad. This guy does a great job, keeps you informed on the progress and completes the shoes when he said they would be done.

I found Hakob and D2Shoe on the web. I sent and email and got a prompt reply. As I live in California, I made an appointment and went in. I have terrible foot problems which limited my bike riding to at most 30 miles with conventional bike shoes. Last Saturday I rode over 100 miles with my new D2s with no foot pain. I cant change my feet but now I can get shoes that allow me to ride like any other cyclist. I love these shoes.

Awesome shoes! Don is very patient and works with you until he gets them right. I sent them back a few times but once dialed in they are the best shoes I’ve owned.

I recently needed a repair done to my D2 MTB shoes (Kong?) and Hakob did a great job and returned them quickly. Thanks!

Paid the deposit months ago, sent the foot measurements back, confirmed that they were received, website went down, finally back up - understand business was sold. Sent emails - asked for a refund because I clearly was not getting shoes. New owner tells me they do not have the foot measurements. Bad.

Update - June 20.I just ordered & received my 2nd pair of D2 Road Bike Cycling shoes.Heres what I wrote to Hakob yesterday in an e-mail:The new shoes just arrived.They look Amazing and the Logo color / location is Perfect - good choice.Think the Color combo / Material choices came out wonderful.Plus Your Craftmanship is exceptional.Look forward to setting up, breaking them in & enjoying showing them off during many miles / events.Thanks so Much.Happy D2 - 2nd Pair - Family MemberHakob really cares about his Customers & He Craft. He listens, is Flexible, provides creative ideas / alternatives and will work hard to produce the Shoes you will be happy to ride.I decided to visit (early Jan 19) the D2 Shoe facility in Santa Paula and VERY happy I made the trip. I had the opportunity to meet Hakob face to face and he personally took all my foot measurements & impressions. He also answered ALL my questions and we went over all the Design possibilities and options. I had already narrowed down what I wanted so it was just a matter of going over the fine details. Hakob was patient and attentive during the entire visit. Before and after the visit, Hakob was responsive via e-mail and/or phone. It was a professional & pleasant experience from beginning to end. The shoes arrived a few days ago and they are Beautiful. I have not set them up or ridden with them yet but really looking forward to finally have a pair of Cycling Shoes made for MY feet.
