CLASS CONTENT

The morning will be spent designing on paper. Through presentation, demonstration and guidance, we will show you how to:

Identify a well fitting shoe

What good proportions look like

The dos and donts of shoe design

How to sketch a shoe design

The afternoon session will be spent drawing your chosen design onto the 0743 shoe last - well proportioned with an elongated, soft egg shaped toe and 1 1/8" heel height. We'll guide you through the design process yourself... advising on construction, material and detail considerations as we go. We'll show you:

How to tape up a last

How to transfer your sketch onto the last

Material and detail considerations

At the end of the session you will leave with a sketchbook of ideas and you could also see your design made up into a pair of leather heeled and soled shoes - £450.
