Shoemaking 102: Making Lasts. We really enjoyed making shoes on our honeymoon but we also enjoyed acquiring the skills and some of the tools it takes to be a shoemaker.
Glen helped us each make a pair of shoes and a pair of lasts. Lasts are basically molds of your feet. They are used in what is called the “lasting” process where the shoemaker forms the top of the shoe and attaches it to the sole. It’s totally possible to do this process directly on the wearer’s feet but that means the person has to be there for several fittings and adjustments. Commercial shoemakers have a selection of generic lasts that they use when making shoes. Of course, every pair of feet is a little different. Glen’s favorite clients are people with exceptionally unusual feet. Glen says he’s still searching for the perfect method of making a custom last but is pretty happy with his current method. I guess you could theoretically stop here and have a hollow model of your foot but Glen’s technique is to tape each mold shut (yay for duct tape!)

How to Make the Side-Seam Moccasin-Boot. Martha Stewart Living magazine featured “Stephanie’s Sewn Felt Slippers” in the December 2011 issue; Stephanie’s slippers seem to have been inspired by the “side seam” moccasins of the Salish (Flathead) Native American tribe.
She updated the pattern by making it in wool felt, stitching with colorful threads and giving it a new twist at the heel. It’s a style that doesn’t require a lot of stitching; the slipper has no seam on the inside of the foot, only on the outside. Your foot slips inside like a hotdog in a bun – but then you stitch it closed. The moccasin can be found in the Craft Manual of North American Indian Footwear by George M. White. Here are the two pages from the manual with directions and patterns for making the Salish side-seam boot. The directions and pattern in the Craft Manual are for a boot, so for this tutorial I am offering directions for adding the boot-top to Stephanie’s slipper/moccasin.
If you go to the directions for Stephanie’s Sewn Felt Slippers, Materials: Simple Sandalmaking - anyone can make them. This book contains 10 styles of sandals in 209 pages, that can be made by anyone who can use simple tools.
All insoles, midsoles, and sole shapes, are included, along with strap placements, threading up instructions, and how to put on buckles, for each style. All sizes from 1 - 12 English men or 2 - 13 for US men and 3.5 - 14.5 US women. Descriptions of making up a sole with a small heel from plain sheet is also included. Not designed specifically for shoemakers, this book only uses styles that do not require a last. This makes it perfect for leatherworkers, or anyone wishing to make a single pair, or start a business.
Apart from the sole and insole outlines there are 104 images and diagrams, I have tried to keep the instructions as simple and as explicit as possible, and have used the same system for the images that I used in my very popular Bespoke Shoemaking book.

Making Shoes! #1. As promised, here comes my post about how to make your own shoes!
I found this amazing booklet: It must be from the 40's, by the look of it (the print), the aesthetics and the content. It is called "Die Schuhnot" which translates basically into "Shoe Shortage", and teaches how women could make their own shoes with left-over materials they had at hand - torn clothes, fabric scraps, pieces of leather, twine, cardboard. RESINE P.U BLANC KIT 1KG150. Design & Construction by quentin Irvine. I have designed a new system/method for making lasts which is particularly suited to the amateur shoe maker/industrial designer and is highly environmentally friendly and completely cradle to cradle in its approach.
Before i start with the steps there are some things to clear up: plasticine: What i refer to as plasticine is more correctly referred to as oil clay. It is a clay powder based sculpting medium which unlike clay and water, never sets or dries and never shrinks. If you want this method to be totally cradle to cradle then get your hands on some totally natural plasticine or make your own: clay powder, castor oil and bees wax will do it. Papier-mâché: This is paper and glue made from flour and water. Step 1: Get a piece of card board, i use pattern making card, as i have lots of it. put your foot on it and trace out the shape of your foot.
Step 3: Put plasticine on the cardboard and build up and shape the last. Step 5: The last is then covered in a thin layer of Papier-mâché. Plâtre Type 5 Extra Dur Renforcé avec Résine pour Moignons en Implantologie, 20kg - Dental A2Z. Denflo HX, Class 5 Diestone.
