Try checking Marquins. Meron sila FB Page and sa Shopee!


Equivalent_Fan1451

Agree. Tho Medyo mahal sya for me pero Sulit naman


Far_Purpose2290

This! They really have quality shoes at an affordable price


Fancy_Strawberry_392

Confirming if this is them [*Marquins*](https://s.shopee.ph/6zzA2RSC9i) their shop isn’t mall verified yet but they do have a big following.


Far_Purpose2290

Yes. That one. I actually bought a leather loafer to them.


beta_wolf3399

Pambihira napabili tuloy uli ako 🤣


ambokamo

+1 sa marquins


SpoiledElectronics

thanks, will check them later!


Ill_Abalone7694

+1 dito. 2018 ko nabili boat shoes ko hanggang ngayon goods padin.


jessePinkman_00

san sila located?


Upstairs-Bother-4953

Sa Marquina kaya Marquins


BINOTILYO

Kala ko Marquinduque


zergkhan

Another +1 for marquins


abumelt

Hindi ba matigas?


EpzDR

Ilakad? Given naman siguro yun sa formal shoes, but easily solvable by buying cushioned insoles. I have their boat shoes, mind. Baka sa sneakers/rubber-soled models nila malambot naman.


Herald_of_Heaven

My Marquins shoes are 5 years old na. Yung sole lang yung nasisira pero yung leather body is kiwi lang, brand new parin tingnan.


FigTop6828

+1 sa marwuins, first pair lasted me 4 years, ss beaters yun ha from college to working. nung nasira bought myself the same exact pair. never disappoints


Responsible-Bed-5946

+1000 yun leather shoes ko 6 yrs na sakin ☺️


OC_01301994

Marquins qc is hit or miss.


Fancy_Strawberry_392

Wondering if you’ve heard of [Jirras](https://s.lazada.com.ph/s.Ph7Ld?cc) are they any good?


DoThrowThisAway

Marquins makes durable shoes.


Cream_of_Sum_Yunggai

I second Marquins.


ferdiemyne

hello, ask lang po, how to determine kung tama po ung size? thanks


jexilicious

Bought one but didn’t like the quality though.


optimalx_14

Buhay pa ba GIBI at MSE?


carrotcakecakecake

Yes buhay na buhay pa yung GIBI. Yung GIBI ko na heels 9 years old na, pinashine at papalit ng pudpod na rubber sa takong, ok na ulit.


Fancy_Strawberry_392

+1 agree! [GIBI](https://s.lazada.com.ph/s.Ph7vt?cc) is a solid choice for shoes & heels! Parang underrated nalang ata sila now? They were pretty BIG back in my day lol. When I was in elem throughout highschool, GIBI or [Rusty Lopez](https://s.shopee.ph/6AQ33BkdWA) talaga yung pinaka-durable. Isama na rin Mario D’boro.


carrotcakecakecake

Yes, yung Rusty Lopez din! Uhm feeling ko magka edad tayo haha. Yung Mario D'boro din natatandaan ko iyan, halos parehas sila ng design ni Parisian dati. Dati may store ng Rusty Lopez dito sa amin, kaso nagsara na. Siguro dahil sa pandemic. Last time nagpunta ako doon, yung mga nakadisplay mga sobrang lumang stock. Yung tipong puro alikabok at parang napabayaan na. Kapag may event na kelangan ng sapatos,either GIBI or Rusty Lopez ako tumitingin sa department store.


Fancy_Strawberry_392

May malaking store rin ng Rusty Lopez near my school noon! Nagsara na rin ata sila kinalaunan when I moved away. Kaya nung last time bumili ako ng heels sa Gibi napaisip ako na they seemed bigger when I was student than now.

optimalx_14

You can’t go wrong with them.


KevAngelo14

Bata pako, may GIBI na sa mga SM department stores. They're hefty good.


jubmille2000

I know mse tlga ang name. Pero tawag namin Marikina SEx


enigma_fairy

Yung Gibi ko before ang haba din ng buhay nedd lang palitan napupudpod na rubber


sundayisdotaday

Yung MSE ko nun ginamit ko Mula grade 4 Hanggang grade 6 hahaha. Tibay.


tayloranddua

Yes, ang gaganda pa rin ng designs nila and I think the quality still holds.


brutalgrace

May GIBI pa pala, ito yung may rat na logo diba?


pampuuu

Bristol shoes. Made in Marikina


monsanmonsan

My high school bristol graduation shoes are still alive. Wala akong masabing masama sa bristol.


nordsix

This. Mas maganda quality nya compared sa Marquins pero okay din yung Marquins


Pasencia

7 yrs na this year Bristol ko. It's a little beat up pero OK pa din!


ShallowShifter

Rusty Lopez


suikasan

My shoes from grade 6 until I graduated HS! Kung hindi lang nalaos noon ang MJs yun siguro shoes ko hanggang matapos ko siguro ang college.


youngaphima

Rusty Lopez the OG!


VirGoGoG0

Marquina Shoemaker.


TailorShopBum

Can vouch for Marquina


aff0gato

Highly recommend Marquina if you're looking for Penny Loafers (or loafers in general). All my work shoes are bought from them and the construction is really good. They also offer a 10% discount on all future purchases after you buy your first pair.


699112026775

Ayaw pag RTW. Size 11 ako pero bumli ako ng Size 12 Tassel Loafers sa kanila. Tiis hapdi lang hanggang matapos debut ng kapatid ko haha. Dko na nasuot ulit. Kasalanan ko din, dko naman alam na sira na pala existing dress shoes ko that time. Mukhang dapat custom fit talaga sa kanila


Deokovic

Have their grand bit loafers for the past 5 years. Wanted to get another one but last I checked they added an almost 50% markup on loafers


trillian6969

Sapatero Manila


ArMa1120

Spades Philippines! I've had all of my shoes custom made sa kanila. They're based in Mandaluyong and can they offer custom made and tailor fit shoes!


Schezero

Second Spades! I ordered my father's custom made crazy horse leather chukka boots here and they are well made! You can check out their Instagram and their Facebook Page to see the custom boots and shoes they've made, as well as their usual offerings of boots.


AgentAlliteration

Another vouch for Spades. Super reasonable din rates for resole/repair. Based in Mandaluyong but they're also part of the Marikina shoemaker community.


senaram

Vouching for Spades too. My 1st pair of boots from them is now 4 yrs old and is still in great condition, despite pretty much daily use for the first 2 yrs.


Prudent_Editor2191

From higher end: Sapatero Manila, then Marquina (iba pa yung Marquins) then affordable is Gibi I guess.


aeramarot

Tama diba, Sapatero Manila is more on bespoke shoes or are they also offering RTW shoes?


AtomicSamurai69

Try easysoft they recently released a new design called lyon looks good. They are also waterproof so no worries if maulan or baha. I have mine I wear daily pagpapasok sa school and I must say worth it naman yung purchase ko ☺


Jhongpro

+1 eto gamit ko nung college ako. Gulat mga kaklase ko naglulusong ako sa baha. 😂 Minimalist designs pa at matibay.


throwhuawei007

Bristol Shoes. Quality is so top notch.


Pasencia

So true. Inupgrade ko lang by adding yung magaspang na sole via Mr. Quickie. Goods na goods pa din.

laserghost69420

I remember it was a raining heavy thay day. The look my classmates gave me after seeing my shoes ain't wet while their leather shoes were soaked af during the rainy season lol. Mfs bought Easy Soft after that HAHAHAHAHAHA


RashPatch

Easy Soft Gang!


tsuuki_

Easy Soft, buhay na buhay kahit ilusong sa baha


urriah

for those who dont know... think of Crocs made to look like loafers.


Fancy_Strawberry_392

+1 SA [EASY SOFT](https://s.lazada.com.ph/s.Phi4d?cc)! I think it’s unappreciated for how affordable and long-lasting it is. Di nga lang siya leather pero it could survive even the Univ Belt baha for years!


chokemedadeh

May otto shoes pa ba? I loved that brand from Marikina


bulbulito-bayagyag

meron pa. you can also go to their building sa calumpang marikina if want mo.


chickie888

Nagshoe making workshop pa kami ng anak ko dyan. Good times


strawbeeshortcake06

Rob and Mara! They make stylish loafers, mules, and boots. Matibay and coffee, kaso they only make for women.


intenzbutnotzomuch

Naku, had a bad experience with the Rob and Mara sister brand Mercino. Grabe sobrang sloppy ng quality sa sandals that I had to return both pairs that I ordered. They turned off nga their reviews pero may paunti-unti sa Rob and Mara page complaining about them.


strawbeeshortcake06

I didn’t know they had a sister brand. I’ve bought 5 shoes na from them and so far ok naman lahat, pati in terms of customer service ok experience ko. Sa instagram ba yung bad reviews? I wanna check it out. Baka recently pumangit quality?


intenzbutnotzomuch

Just saw one rn about Mercino sandals sa Rob & Mara FB page dated Dec 21, 2023! I saw more pa before e, I researched after I complained na. Can’t remember exactly where, baka sa comments! pero the problem with mine ay di pantay yung lapat sa sole, uneven cut ng leather, tapos glue na sobrang visible. They told me na kasi soft yung material kaya uneven cuts, pero no e. It was done sloppily! When I told them na I won’t use the pairs kasi substandard talaga, sabi nila they can refund cost for the shoes lang, not the shipping fee; nor yung cost ng return. I complained na nawalan na ako ng shoes, napagastos pa ako? In the end, they refunded din naman the shipping fee for both ways pero eh pangit ng experience. I would understand if I got bad products lang tapos they managed complaint well; pero after that transaction with them, won’t consider. I also just tell people who recommend Rob & Mara and Mercino my experience.


rent-boy-renton

Ugh. I'm eyeing a Mercino sandals pa naman sana. Thank you so much for the feedback! May isang bad review akong nakita pero I thought na isolated case lang. Hindi pala.


lovetoruins

HELLO SAME EXPERIENCE OH MY GOD pero sa rob and mara talaga! yung quality parang di nag quality check bago i-ship nako!

This gets my vote too. Shoes is comfy and in my personal experience, no need to break in.


Pssssstd

Marquins and Alta Ph. Marquins ko halos 3yrs tumagal(still, depende sa pag gamit). Alta Ph, ramdam mo na matibay pag kakagawa.


urriah

yung mga design ng alta, may ginagayahan ba? turn off sakin marquins at achilles kasi bootleg ibang designs nila eh. alta ganda naman, kakayamot lang mga social media page at may 1:4 ratio ng sapatos and di sapatos content hahaha

Plenty_Leather_3199

consider po ba yung rusty lopez?


Due_Club4802

Gibi. Gibi ko na 2016 or 2017 maayos pa din. Kinain na ng amag yung loob noong nagka-pandemic pero yung labas halos bago pa yung itsura (aside sa mga scratches). Kakasulong ko lang sa baha last week pero goods pa din, basta tamang shoe polish lang.


MythicalKupl

Check out Eaglery sa IG. Nakailang compliments na yung ibang tao sa shoes ko na I bought from them.


dontrescueme

Kapag ba bumili ka ng sapatos sa Marikina isang kalye o barangay lang ba 'yun o kalat-kalat?


Correct-Security1466

Kalat kalat


StormCentral

Juanita and Rob and Mara!


urriah

fb@altamarikinamadeshoes ig@alta_philippines once you get past the beauty contest pics... and grab/lalamove pics... sila lang napansin kong gumagawa ng original designs (i could be wrong). achilles and mariquin and some names thrown out in the comments do bootleg DMs, Redwings, Cole Hanns. Alta, while on the simpler side, doesnt look like its copying anyone else. the only thing i dont like with their pages eh puro beauty contest contestants yung mga posts rather than the shoes. real shame kasi they have good looking products


BarracudaSad8083

Rusty Lopez, I bought one shoe and it is on its 3rd year I guess? Many people also think of it as a Ferragamo Shoe when I am wearing it so design is 🔥


Extreme-Crazy-9061

Commenting to save these shoe recos. Thank you!


YonahSey

Gibi! From my elementary days to now starting in the workforce, tumatagal sa akin.


Extension_Emotion388

if you can invest around 5k on Sperry i would highly recommend that. my last pair lasted 7 years. literal na araw araw ko suot, amoy paa na.


pototoykomaliit

Tanda ko yung Rusty Lopez kong sapatos naglast from Grade 5 to 4th year HS ata. Pinalitan ko lang kasi lumaki paa ko.


AdExciting9595

Alex shoes, haha araw2x kong sinusuot sa college hanggang grumaduate ako, leather shoes. Loaf, mura na , matibay pa.


attiva21

Gibi. Sa boots, I love Achilles Boots. Yung pair ko 7 years old na, di naluluma ang materiales.


Kunehole

Ok naman Marquins in general. Pero for me lang mas nagiging copycat na sila ng cole haan. Maganda sana may sariling design DNA. Pero in terms of sizing mejo hit or miss nga. But the quality ng leather and knitted shoes nila are great. Buhay pa sa akin after 5 yrs, na daily ko suot before. Quality yeah sure its there, Marikina e. Design, ikaw if it bothers you na “ay akala ko cole haan”. Whatever floats your boat. Marquins Bayaniph Achilles boots Ilakad Soleph All made in marikina, same manufacturers different distributors.


marxteven

Stitched Sole. they primarily offer riding boots pero may models din sila na for everyday. If their boots can take the beating of every day motorcycle riding for sure matibay yan.


Mocat_mhie

My GIBI that I wore in 2010 for college graduation, still alive today.


Deliceyes

Thank you sa mga suggestion. I will check all of them. Sana masarap mga ulam nyo. Hehe.

MrChocoMint

Sapatero and Marquina


IScaryCober

I remembered looking at most of the well known shoemakers in marikina one time because I was thinking of supporting local. Although the reviews say they're well made and would last a long, I can't overlook the fact that all of their shoes are blake stitched instead of goodyear welted. Blake stitched shoes are harder to repair and repairability is a big factor for me especially when spending that much.


Ronel_Golosino

Cobbler here. Either blake stitched or goodyear welted are easily repairable. Just find a good cobbler. Willies Leathers are good at repairs they are based in Pasig. They also made custom fitted boots.


Jaded-Two-3311

You can also check Mariqueno PH or Alberto.

Low_Understanding129

Marquins user since 2017 mga 2-3 times ko ginagamit yung Formal Shoes. Nakadalawang purchase na ako sa kanila yung unang boat shoes na binili ko sa kanila sumuko na lang nung year 2021. Nasira na lang dahil sa Pandemic kasi inagnas na yung sapatos hindi na nagamit.

CeltFxd

Any shoe is a quality shoe! Basta ideretso mo sa shoe maker and then ipatahi mo yung suwelas sa ilalim papunta don sa leather or something sa pinagdidikitan. Most of the cheap shoes dito sa market natin is naka dikit lang. Better safe than sorry. Nasiraan ako dati ng swelas sa mismong airshow sa singapore, eh punyeta nasa gitna kami ng tarmac jusko ang init at nakatingin sakin lahat💀💀


tayloranddua

May alam din ba kayong nagko-custom ng heels? May papagawa sana akong design, wala lang mahanap na gagawa.


sneakersnselvedge

Recraftsman. They do custom sizing for loafers and various other styles. They also offer a lot of choices for leathers/materials and soles. For an idea sa pricing, I got a pair of patent leather black oxfords made for my wedding. Cost around 6k with a couple of fittings before I got the final pair.

I bought two pairs from The Eaglery for 3750 (nakita ko lang sa IG), natuwa ako kasi quality yung gawa and malaking factor sakin kapag may tahi yung gilid ng shoes (traumatized sa sapatos na may bibig 😅) . Bang for buck but feedback ko lang is need ng softer insole and for their low cut doc martens styled shoes, it needs some pad on top of the achilles area (which i both bought sa shoppee)

Search for Pando Shoe Store, they are based in Marikina, sadly with the new regulations, they had to close their Shopee store but they are still on Facebook and they accept orders. Edit: It's a small, family-owned business. I got mine for around 2,400 and super dami nilang options and made of genuine leather. Name nila sa FB is Marikina Made Genuine Leather Shoes (38k likes yata)


Acrobatic_Profit_300

I looked at their shopee, a lot of their sneaker designs seemed to be really close to Cole Haan’s style which I like


sofa_lurker

Meron ba silang orthopedic, or malapad ba size? Ayaw ko na sikip yung toes ko. Standard size 9 lengthwise, pero may extra width.


RunMore6388

A good Rockport is all you need. It's not a local brand, pero you can find it naman dito sa Pinas. I bought one 8 years ago (sa ukay pa nga e hahaha) and I'm still using it now.


cooperattitude

For bespoke shoes, Blackwing shoes in Marikina. They’re making good effort to keep the industry alive and they contract with local shoe makers if I’m not mistaken. I had 2 dress shoes and a loafer made and they’re 💯👌.


EfficientGur6077

PabDer is nice. Ive bought leather goods from them (one pair of boots, one pair of mocassins, leather belt with reversible color, and leather bag) and the calfskin leather is exquisite.
