THE SHOEMAKER: Principles & Guide for Professionals

Would you like to learn the art of making shoes by hand? Do you want to learn at your own pace how some of the finest shoes are built?

NOW YOU CAN!

This manual serves as a quick guide for anyone desiring to become a professional footwear designer – without having served as an apprentice at a master's workshop. With this guidebook, you can become a designer despite not having attended a design school.

Once you have acquired a copy, it walks you through the simplified shoemaking process – from creating a diagram of shoe designs – to building shoe samples. The hundreds of colourful pictures and diagrams explain the fine art of shoemaking through a few straightforward steps that anyone can recall and follow. Everything I present to you in this book comes from my personal experience.
