Founded by Cuitlahuac Ortiz, John Doe Shoes is a made-in-Mexico footwear brand specializing in premium, made-to-order shoes handcrafted with high-end leather and durable soles. Every pair is produced in León, Mexico, then shipped to customers across the U.S., Europe, Canada, Australia and Asia. 

“UPS gives us clear tracking for the customer, consistent delivery and peace of mind,” Cuitlahuac said. “That allows us to compete with much larger brands without having to build our own logistics operation.”
