Course Description
In this workshop, you’ll create a pair of basic leather lace-up boots for your own feet based on personal measurements you provide in advance. Patterns will be drafted for you in accordance with these measurements.
In this challenging four-day workshop, students will learn the foundation for most theatrical or street styles of shoes and expand on the following skills:
- Discover the anatomy of a boot and learn how all the parts fit together
- Cut pieces of leather for the upper of the boots, and sew them together
- Attach insoles to the lasts and pull the leather uppers over the lasts
- Add soles and heels to the boots
The end product will be a pair of boots students can proudly wear home.
Note: Students will be required to use machinery such as industrial sewing machines and power tools. Physical dexterity is required.
Classes run Saturdays and Sundays, 9am-5pm.
