This class will quickly teach you some of the basic techniques of shoemaking. This is an accelerated class! (Literally half the time of the intensive) To make this possible there will be minimal sewing and we have prepared Master Patterns that you will be using for this class. You will have a choice between a LO, MID or HI top sneaker. (See photo example for MID height!) You will be able to customize your sneaker via material choices and simple design details: Topline, Laces, eyelets, pull tabs, topstitching... THIS IS GONNA BE AWESOME! 

Day 1 (Half day): Patternmaking, Cutting Leathers

We hope students will be able to choose leathers from our leather library. Materials are included. If you intend on going shopping to purchase your own leathers, that will be on your time and $.
