Personally I love learning new skill and doing things myself, and the joy I derive from wearing stuffs made by me knows no bound.

So let dive into the ocean of shoe making

Step 1: Measuring the foot size of your customer.

Step 2: cutting of your skin leather to particular pattern you want to mold

Step 3: sewing of the upper of your shoe leather together to form your pattern.

Step 4: Punching of your skin leather to make hole desigh of your pattern, continue until Punching is fully achieved on the upper layer of your skin leather.

Step 5: Applying gum and setting up of your shoe pattern(this is achieved by place your sewn leather part on a last)

Once your shoe pattern is fully set and achieved, that mean We are done with the upper of the shoe

NOW WE MOVE TO THE SOLE MAKING

Step 6: cutting of your shoe sole (Nora, fiber and heel)

Step 7: lasting of your skin leather on a Fibre (sole)

Sole making process using Nora,wet, and heel.

Step 8: once Sole pattern is achieved, then applying gum for final lasting of the shoe

Final step: lasting and guming of the upper part of the shoe to the sole.

Final stage: removing of shoe last to see how your shoe look like.
