Size runs, seasonal styles, and factory timelines. Finally under control.
A shoe is nine components from five suppliers, assembled in a job-work unit you don’t own, sold in seven sizes where one gap kills the listing. Honey Shelf was built for exactly this kind of complexity.
Footwear punishes small planning mistakes.
Sell out of one size and the whole listing suffers. Miss one component delivery and the whole run stalls.
One missing size kills the listing
A run from UK 6 to UK 12 lives or dies on its middle sizes. When UK 8 sells out, conversion on the entire product drops, ad spend keeps burning, and Shopify quietly demotes the page — while UK 6 and UK 12 sit untouched in the warehouse.
Nine components, five suppliers
Upper, sole, insole, laces, lining, eyelets, box — every shoe is a multi-component BOM where each material has its own supplier and its own lead time. The slowest component decides when the run finishes, and it’s usually the one nobody was watching.
Production you can’t see
Stitching and lasting happen at outsourced job-work units, capped by mould and last availability. Add fixed seasonal launch dates — monsoon sandals, winter boots, festive juttis — and you’re forecasting months ahead with zero visibility into the floor.
Plan every pair. See every unit.
From per-size demand signals to job-work tracking, Honey Shelf turns footwear’s moving parts into one plan.
Size-curve intelligence
Honey Shelf tracks real daily velocity per size — excluding stockout days — so a days-remaining countdown runs on UK 8 separately from UK 12. Your next production order matches how the run actually sells, not a 1-2-3-3-2-1 curve someone guessed two seasons ago.
Multi-component BOMs
Map upper, sole, insole, laces, and box per style and per size — waste included. When a production order is drafted, Honey Shelf calculates every material shortfall and drafts purchase orders per supplier, so the outsole PO goes out the same day as the leather PO.
Job-work visibility
Work orders track outsourced units the same as your own floor — what’s at the stitching vendor, what’s at lasting, what’s waiting on moulds. QC gates at each stage mean a bad batch is caught at the job-work unit, not in a customer’s unboxing video.
Season-safe supplier tracking
Every component vendor’s lead time and on-time-delivery record lives in one scorecard. When an outsole supplier starts slipping, you see it months before it threatens a seasonal launch — with enough runway to switch or split the order.
The features that matter
Four pieces of Honey Shelf that footwear teams lean on hardest.
Bill of Materials
Nine components per shoe, mapped per style and per size, waste and cutting loss included. Change a sole vendor once — every dependent style updates.
Explore →Supplier Management
Lead times and OTD tracking for every component vendor and job-work unit — so the slowest link in your shoe is never a surprise.
Explore →Inventory Management
A live days-remaining countdown for every size of every style. Know UK 8 has nine days left before the listing feels it.
Explore →Shopify Integration
Two-way sync per size variant. Sales flow in to drive velocity; finished pairs flow out as exact per-size quantities — no more overselling UK 9.

Footwear brands ask us
Every size in the run — UK 6 through UK 12 — is a variant with its own sales velocity and its own days-remaining countdown, with stockout days excluded so the numbers stay honest. When Honey Shelf drafts a production order, quantities are calculated per size from real demand, so you replenish the sizes that actually sell instead of rebuilding a flat curve. The result: the middle sizes that carry your listing stay in stock.
Yes. Each style’s BOM maps every component and consumable — including packaging — per size, with waste factored in. When you approve a run, Honey Shelf computes material shortfalls across all components and auto-drafts purchase orders grouped by supplier, each with that supplier’s lead time attached. One late component stalls a whole run, so nothing gets ordered by memory.
That’s the normal case for footwear, and Honey Shelf is built for it. Work orders track production at external stitching and lasting units exactly like an in-house floor — stage by stage through the 6-stage pipeline, with QC gates before goods are accepted back. You always know which unit holds which run, and each unit builds an on-time-delivery record you can plan around.
