Quality, Manufacture & Materials

No. JENNEN Shoes are designed to be lightweight without compromising durability.

Depending on the style and size, a JENNEN shoe weighs between 0.4kg and 0.9kg, which is similar to regular, well-made shoe.

No. Both our in-built insoles and Ezylift insoles won’t compress over time.

We design our shoes in Melbourne and manufacture them in China.

All our shoes undergo rigorous quality control and are built to last.

For our shoes made with leather, we use only premium grade cow leather. 

The leather we use is primarily a byproduct of the meat industry and is considered to be more ethically sourced than leather that is specifically raised for its hide. This means that the leather is obtained after the animals have been raised for food, reducing waste and making sure every part is put to good use. We're committed to ethical practices and sustainability, so you can be confident that our products are not only stylish but also ethical.

We use rubber outsoles as they are more durable than leather and wood.

They also provide more grip and are quiet when walking.

No. Leather outsoles don't provide enough grip when walking, plus they wear out very quickly. As a result, we only use rubber outsoles. Sorry dancers!

The built-up insoles inside JENNEN Shoes are made from polyurethane and won’t compress over time.

Our non-leather shoes are made from canvas, microfibre or fabric uppers, depending on the style. The styles that mimic leather are made from microfibre. All our vegan shoes are soft, durable and comfortable to wear.

No. They are glued down. It’s pointless to remove them anyway, since they are too thick to fit into regular shoes.

If you're wearing them everyday, a well-made pair of shoes should last over a year.

The height-increase shouldn't diminish either, as we use high quality polyurethane shoe lifts.

Apply leather conditioner and polish regularly to preserve and protect the leather.

You can also prevent the heels from wearing out by not digging the back of the heels into the ground with each stride.

Yes. The back of the outsoles are usually the first place for any shoes to wear out. Take your JENNEN Shoes to your local cobbler or shoes repairer, and they'll resole them for you for around $80 a pair. Unfortunately, we do not provide repair services ourselves.

We don't make custom shoes, but we do have over 100 designer styles to select from.
