I totally agree, fit is everything - especially when it comes to feet.
After talking with them on the phone last week and having read a few things about the guys at D2 on the net, I am confident that the shoes will come out perfect. They might not be perfect at first but they said that when i get the shoes if they just dont feel right at all I can send them back as many times as I would like until they fit perfectly. They put no limit on the amount of times I can send them back to have them reworked or tweaked and that is a big appeal to me (since I can be pretty picky).
I explained to them about some bumps I have on my heels (kinda like bone spurs) and they gave me instructions to take a series of photographs with rulers (in addition to their foam custom fit kit where they take impressions of your feet) so that they can accomodate my needs.
I found out they make about 2 pairs of shoes a day and it will take about 2 months before my shoes are ready. Apparently that's quicker than their old turn around time of 7 months.
Their shoes are kinda known for the black and white checkerboard toes and heels but I just can't bring myself to go with that look - I'm more of an all black shoe kinda guy.
