MATERIAL SELECTION

High-quality materials are carefully chosen for each component of the shoe. This may include leather, fabric, or synthetic materials for the upper, lining, and insole, as well as rubber or leather for the outsole.

CUTTING

After the patterns are made, the leather or fabric is cut according to the templates. This is a delicate process that requires precision and attention to detail. 

STITCHING

The cut pieces are then stitched together using specialized sewing machines or by hand. Skilled craftsmen meticulously sew the upper, lining, and insole together, ensuring durability and a neat finish.

SOLING

The next step is attaching the sole to the shoe. Depending on the design, this can be done by stitching, gluing, or a combination of both. The sole provides traction and protection for the foot.

LASTING

Lasting is the process of shaping the shoe upper around a last, which is a foot-shaped mold. The upper is stretched and pulled over the last, and then secured in place using tacks or adhesive. This step gives the shoe its final shape and structure.

FINISHING

Once the sole is attached, the shoe goes through a finishing process. This includes trimming any excess material, smoothing rough edges, and polishing the shoe to enhance its appearance.

Handmade shoes are a testament artistry and craftsmanship that goes into every pair, making them a cherished possession for those who appreciate the beauty of handmade goods.
