This DVD Video is created for
Viewing on TV.
The action takes you from identifying
the pattern pieces, selecting and cutting the leather, to sub-assembly
and stitching the parts together to form the "upper"
of the shoe...
From the stitched upper through
hand lasting, applying the soles, and finishing the shoes. Watch
as the raw materials begin to take shape!
See how the upper is magically
transformed into the final shape of the shoe, as it is molded
over the shoe last.
