Is there any info at all on when we might expect to see the veil lifted on shoe design?

I haven't checked Zazzle News, lately, but if there's any update, it should be there.

Hello,
We have posted on a few threads. At this time, we do not have any updates to share at this time and will provide guidance when we can. Until then, they remain on our long term to-do list and will be re-released when all of the pieces are put into place.
Thanks for your patience.
The Zazzle Team

There is also this disclaimer on the site. You can sign up for email notifications about the shoes on that page as well.

I don't know that I can get excited about shoes again, anyway. I made a lot of the ones that no longer exist. Not griping ... just trying to be realistic. Thanks for posting the link, though. How on earth did you find that page? I've never seen it before? Cheers, Marian

Cheers, Marian It was all over the site when the shoes were removed. Zazzle replaced the shoe images with a silhouette that linked to that page. I was told that when the new shoes are launched our old designs will be reapplied to the new ones so we won't have to do anything. I hope that is still the case.

I never saw any shoe silhouettes in my shops. If our previous designs are going to be applied as is to the new shoes, then the new shoes will have to be pretty much identical to the ones we had before. Did they just change vendors? BTW, I'm still unable to sign up for an email notification. Cheers, Marian

The silhouettes were only live for maybe a few days if that.
From what I understand they are still with the same vendor but won't be using the Keds brand. Again I am not sure, I am only going on what has been said in the past and that has not always turned out to be gospel. Things change and Zazzle's tight-lipped approach since they were removed has many people thinking they may never return. I would like to see an in depth official announcement on the progress of the new shoe line other than "it's on the list of things to do". It's a cliffhanger for sure. We will probably never know what lead to their removal but it will be interesting to see how well Zazzle fixes the damage. Since it is taking so long I am optimistic because maybe that means they are doing it right.

I think I saw something somewhere saying we would be able to brand them ourselves. I know they said they were still partnered with Collective Brands, and Keds is part of that. When they return may be out of Zazzle's hands, and we may be waiting for the vendor to be ready to launch whatever we're going to be using.

Yes, I agree.
Zazzle, please state some news on this topic.
I designed dozens of shoes and have customers who want to purchase asking for information since earlier this year. You said 2012.
SO ? I'd love an answer.
