( Rockwell Power Plant Mall )the sales lady confirmed that all the shoes there were from Marikina... i bought my first pair last December 2009, and i super love it kc kahit 4 inches yung heels nya you wouln'd feel discomfort, di sya masakit sa paa, and the leather they use is magandang klase talaga malambot ( i forgot the kind of leather they use )... I bought another 2 pairs last week hehehe!!! i suuupppeeerrrr love solea… ( Rockwell Power Plant Mall )the sales lady confirmed that all the shoes there were from Marikina…

I really adore shoes!! but I'm not really familiar with ones from Marikina. Do you think making a top local fashion designer to design for Marikina would be a leap for the industry to venture into fashion? :) hey :) I’m learning a lot from your conversations..by the way, I’m a college senior and is taking up my thesis, and my stuff deals with organizing a Special Event for Marikina made shoes!

They sell marikina made shoes only and its prices are much cheaper compare to those at dept. stores.They carry both mens and ladies shoes. Some of their brands are BRISTOL, VALENTINO, SWATCH, FRED PERRY & DANZPORT for men and BIANCA, MANOR,FRANCEL, AMFEL,FERRINA by Fred Perry and FUSCHIA by Bristol for ladies.Try to visit their store and they usually have a 'SALE" almost every month.

And majority of the styles there are exclusive to this branch. Mejo high end shop kaya nice. di gaya sa mga malls, mas warm and accomodating dito. service deluxe pa. try to visit. also, there is a GIBI shoe gallery store in Il Terrazzo Tomas Morato, they carry plenty of Marikina made leather shoes.

Gibi shoes offers locally made shoes, marikina made. although they also offer both china, taiwan shoes for business reasons i guess, they are proud to say that they still produce marikina made shoes and in leather. i think they still maintain several factories in marikina unlike other brands hi.

I used to buy my shoes from Suki, Janylin and Celine/CMG in Greenhills. I have no knowledge though of whether their shoes are all Marikina made. I go for both comfort and style. I'll ditch anything that's not comfortable on my feet. I love my Suki sandals. Truth is, I still have my Suki sandals that I bought from them 5 years ago. Now that summer is here in the US, I have been wearing them again! I also love the fact that the sandals I'm wearing is 'one-of-a-kind' here. I'll be visitng the Phils. this month and I would love to see and buy shoes that we have over there! I have been out of the country for 4 years now.

Cardam's is almost shut down. Otto has a biggest manufacturing site in Antipolo, ITTI is in Marikina. RUSTY LOPEZ, some percentage are still made in Marikina but so sad that some pairs are from China so with GIBI. MENDREZ are exporting from CHINA as well. BRISTOL SHOES are 100% Marikina made and launched their ladies line available in Market!Market! and Marquinton but their men's collection are comparable with BALLY of Switzerland and FLORSHEIM of USA. Some of FIGLIA and MARIE NICOLE are made in MARIKINA... for the list of some brands and manufacturers, check PFFI in Marikina. FYI, we have our very own Philippine Footwear Academy which offer courses for Shoe Design and Manufacturing... out of the discussion but still, just want to point out that MARIKINA Shoes still exist with best quality. SOLEA and CARMELLETE's are also offering best valued sandals with good designs. Cardam’s if you are familiar is a sister of OTTO and ITTI which are brothers but competitors.
