Make a Pair of Moccasins in One Day! - Easy DIY Tutorial

[@aperson-qv7bj]

I made a pair of moccasins out of 2.5mm veg tanned, they took some work but they are amazing thanks to your easy direction Tony..... These buggers will last a lifetime guaranteed.

[@marievanrensburg7188]

WOW Tony, you have really gone "all out" on these patterns! The variety, the alternative sizes AND width of feet.....FANTASTIC!! Thank you so very much!

[@DieselpunkRo]

thank you for noticing

[@Jackson-kj-82]

You are a blessing to me am thankful

[@BDoutside1101]

I just want to say thank you and echo others on how good this pattern is and how easy it is to work with! Really looking forward to seeing more of your work and patterns in the future. I'm definitely a fan now! Wish I could post pics of my finished moccasin! I just have to say WOW! And thank you again.

[@charlesschranz5537]

chuck from chicago mine don’t look as good as yours but i’m getting better . first time i stretched leather thanks for nice pattern

[@scottmorrison8579]

I just finished building my moccasins and yet ANOTHER(no duh) flawless pattern set by Tony! I used a heavier utility 4.5oz for the bottom outside sole to offer me having these to wear for a much longer time. I also got, last year, the three-pack of leather shoes/slippers from Tony which have worked out Great! ...now if I can just convince my cat that she needs to keep her fur out of the stitching. I'll let you know how THAT goes. Thank you, Tony, yet again for your hard work and efforts!

[@SewingLara]

I purchased the patterns a few days ago and can't wait to make my first pair! They look so amazing ❤🥰😍🤩 thank you for such great explanation!

[@tedblackburn8679]

Hey Tony!! Thanks for making this pattern. I just finished and they are great. Fits my feet perfectly. I used steer hide in 5/6 ounce. Thanks again and have a wonderful day!! Cheers from Montreal Canada.

[@LeatherMadeSkateboarder]

If I wasn't already making a fancy watchband I'd make Mom some moccasins tonight. Thank you sir

[@carlodipaolo5826]

This is a very nice moccasin. I will absolutety try and build a pair!

[@garydavis9573]

Great video! Do you have a place you like to buy bulk leather from?

[@Ben-pq1wl]

Just finished my right moccasin, starting tomorrow on the left. So happy with how it turned out! You rock Tony.

[@DieselpunkRo]

Rock on!

[@MelindaRoot]

Just watched the video. Can't wait to start making the moccasins!

[@persephonesnow4336]

I'm making these for my family for christmas gifts. I'm adding an extra touch of lining them with rabbit fur to make them extra special as gifts. Thanks Tony for another great pattern!

[@bradantin]

Hey @ persephones... can you tell me how you added the lining? I want to do the same thing.

[@maaingan]

@@bradantin cut the fur the exact same as you would the exterior panels to form the interior panels and then trim the fur from the very edge of the interior panel to reveal enough skin to make punching and stitching easier. glue the two together, with the leather and fur sides out and the suede and hide sides toward each other. then you make the shoes like normal

[@sironkomuslimaid]

I'm Masaba from Uganda 🇺🇬 Africa, how can download those shoe patterns

[@freewilly321]

Amazing - looks like I've got holiday presents for the whole family figured out now! Thank you for the huge variety of sizes!

[@dmitryivanov9026]

Thanks for the video! I'm sure many people will find it very useful and guiding!

[@GauravSingh-r6r]

Thanks dude I needed it!❤❤❤❤

[@chaoticnewtrl]

Ahhhh! I think I know a project before summer 😁👍 So Awesome! I may get a bit wild with it!

[@chrissiehines3268]

Your content is top notch ❤ thank you 😁

[@therenaissancewoman2080]

Thank you for this very well demonstrated video. This is so helpful. Bravo!

[@chainduck]

Just finished a pair, using anti fatigue mat for the internal cushion...worked great. However, I think the vamp should be wider by another 6- 8mm to allow for a wider foot.

[@DieselpunkRo]

some feet are wider, true

[@philippkrause2269]

Just use a wider toe box from another size up, but count the holes to be sure! I used size 47 wide for my size 45 pairs.. perfect fit for me!

[@Lorddanielrushton371]

Great pattern as always Tony

[@GearheadGarageCanada]

This looks like a nice fairly quick pattern, can't wait to try. Thank you Tony!

[@MsGyp]

Best video by far!!!

[@leecollier4337]

Yo this is rad, was looking for a pattern just like this a little while back and couldn't find one, so this is perfect, awesome job!

[@TimB-ro3sy]

Having trouble getting all the holes to line up. Seems I am two holes off. I am ending up with a twisted moccasin. Took the sole off and reattached down one hole and got the same thing.What Im I doing wrong!! Help

[@charlesschranz5537]

had the same problem,there a lot of holes by the heel very close together miss one and you have a problem. go slow make sure you get every hole

[@roaleatherworks3961]

Ahother master piece from Tony 😃 This pattern is AMAZING!!..

[@TerrysWiredLife]

Great pattern. Can it be lined with lambs wool? Would I have to go up one size to do that?

[@sentinelfox6937]

MB a bit late Take the pattern 1 or 2 sizes Up and Take sheep skin

[@phillipusalbertusopperman8172]

In my opinion the best moccasin pattern on the market! Thanks a lot!👍

[@Norsesailing]

wow this is real quality i have to try this. great video, you are good at teaching. keep it up🤟❤️🙏

[@rstephens4646]

I love these! Tony, you always make the best patterns and your videos make them so easy to make. Thank you.

[@davidyoung3035]

Thank you! This is going to make it easier for me thank you again

[@heatherstrandquist6789]

I'm halfway through making your Cat bag right now but as soon as I'm finished I definitely will be making these next!!! Thank you for this pattern and video, running to your Etsy shop now to purchase it!

[@Eric-ve9pc]

Great job. I am imagining, native Americans. Or Viking using warm , fresh, soft rawhide for the sole.. when it dries to form fit your foot and keep feet from getting scarred up.

[@alanrothnie1410]

Thankyou, i will be making a pair👏👏👏

[@ahmedgharib6357]

Amazing video as always, thank you so much for every thing we learn from your work. I’ve just purchased the pattern and it is incredible with all the details. I was wondering if you are able to do a pattern for moccasins boots ? Thanks

[@alfher22]

This is a beautiful pattern, I can't wait to try it. could you do it with a rubber sole too.

[@SallyGulbrandsen]

Great pattern, thank you Tony. I can't wait to have a go at these.

[@monzased3068]

Awesome Tony! Your patterns always rock! Thanks!

[@faheemhartley6191]

beautiful work as always Tony. Can you perhaps make a Sebago style Dockside Boat shoe pattern.

[@graphguy]

I know what I will be doing over the Thanksgiving Holiday week!

[@Anton-zb9dc]

Hey! That's the thing I was looking for! I guess I will do pair by the pattern but do you have a video explaining how to make patterns or it's a trial and error process

[@HowlingWolf422]

Great pattern look forward to making these, thank you Tony!

[@MakeitTryitDIYit]

Can you do these in boots? Is this your original moccasin pattern?

[@grahamredfern8969]

Hi Tony. Great plan. Can you help I am trying to make a pair for my partner, but she has very wide feet ( more than your wide tongue can deal with ) I was thinking the easiest way would be to add a gusset but I don’t know how to design this

[@philippkrause2269]

Maybe try to use a wide toe box from larger sizes, but count the holes to be sure! I used size 45 with the wide toe box from size 47, perfect for my wider feet.

[@tazo1jd]

can i glue soles on so i can use them outside ?

[@indigoglass6638]

These are awesome. Thanks Tony!

[@danilobutlersantivanez2887]

Hello, I would like the mold for size 8.5 and 7. 

[@shawnataylor7998]

Beautiful job!❤

[@richardhatt6541]

Will this pattern be able to be put into a laser cutter? Make everything faster and more accurate.

[@AerikArkadian]

Do you happen to have a link for where you would purchase this type of leather? And in enough quantity to make at least one pair?

[@shawnswain5813]

Try Tandy Leather in the U.S.

[@Lord_RavnFar_Tannerwise]

So what is that heat tool you're using to melt/set the ends of your thread? It looks like an old ego style vape pen

[@jadenedginton7787]

I am having a great time with these... can anyone recommend how to tie off the string after stitching?? It looks like he burns the end but that doesn't seem secure on my test piece when I try... Making a regular knot looks like it will irritate my foot because it is too big.. any tips from anyone? Thanks in advance!!!

[@philippkrause2269]

I do 1-2 full backstiches and a half to have both ends on the outside, then cut and burn the ends on all stitches. I prefer no irritation over perfect optics on shoes. And to be fair, you can only see them on close inspection.. fine by me.

[@tracyadams4227]

What size of round leather punch do you recommend for stitching holes for the moccasins? 1.5mm?

[@DieselpunkRo]

1-1.5 mm will be best

[@charlieramirez9223]

What size hole punch is recommended

[@freewilly321]

Tony, any thoughts on lining these with fur or faux fur? I am thinking about lining the entire interior with lambskin, not just the rim.

[@persephonesnow4336]

I had the same thought and purchased rabbit fur to line these as christmas gifts for my family

[@dalemilam58]

have you added a rubber sole to any of these I have the rubber from another project but not sure how to apply it...glue and stitch?

[@ibrahimScoskun]

Hey Bro, this products are wonderfull, We want to next pattern Blazer Jacket's. See ya

[@jamesfierros1141]

What kind of thread burner is that?!?

[@lindagale4277]

beautiful video , would have liked to have seen them on your feet to see how they fitted you . 😊

[@bradantin]

Hey Tony, how about some tips on adding a lining to the moccasins?

[@richardhatt6541]

Cut the regular leather and then glue the liner to the inside of the pattern and cut to fit. I was thinking about a really soft, thin leather for a lining.

[@bradantin]

I'm thinking either rabbit fur or wool shearling

[@ascer2143]

what kind of knife do you use? where to buy it.

[@razielthecorpse]

I'll be making a pair for myself and my kids and parents! Will the pattern be available as a vector file? My whole family has very long skinny feet, an svg file would be great to tweak the fit

[@theklamps9305]

I made a pair of moccasins for a gift, and although the length was great, the width was far from wide enough, even using the wide toe box. I think this individual has very wide feet… is there a way to adjust for this?

[@philippkrause2269]

I have also wide feet. I used the parts for size 45 and the wide toe box from size 47. I counted the holes and it was the same amount for 45 and 47. Perfect fit for me!

[@michaelrodman6646]

very nice tutorial what kind of thread burner are you using? thanks!

[@DieselpunkRo]

amzn.to/4f8iWXf

[@theklamps9305]

What size thread do you use to stitch these?

[@JohnTBlock]

Thanks, Tony. Gonna enjoy wearing these...

[@richardhatt6541]

When he says trust the pattern, he means it. I was stitching the bottoms together, and the holes were not lining up. The holes were off, and I had to go way over to catch the correct hole. When I finished, they were back to being correct. I will make a few pairs before doing any pattern adjustments.

[@alanajoyal]

My foot is shaped like a this foot 🦶 wider at the toes… do you have any patterns that are shaped like this? Or instructions to adjust them? 🙏🙏

[@DieselpunkRo]

this pattern will literally shape along your feet if you use a soft leather

[@philippkrause2269]

I also have wide feet, I used all the parts for size 45 and the wide feet part from size 47. Perfect fit for me, just count the holes for the pairing to be sure (same hole count for 45&47).

[@mcelroymountainlearningaca5952]

What is the tool you are using to touch the ends of the lacing stitch? Are you melting it?

[@BullSkater]

soldering iron

[@Archangel-pd1rn]

Awesome! Please make a "barefoot" shoe version of this pattern.

[@jpjapers]

Im going to made these and add a nice thick veg tan insole to them too

[@michaelfarias9987]

Tony, I've been meaning to ask for awhile now, what needles do you use.. they seem longer than the needles I use.

[@-----REDACTED-----]

Can the foam piece be simply left out?

[@DieselpunkRo]

sure but your feet need some padding

[@philippkrause2269]

I used a thicker leather for the sole part and the same leather again for the inner sole / foam part. I love them this way. My wife has a bark inner sole for their home only use shoes.

[@yannlebeau5546]

I wish that pattern was done up to size 16 US/14.5 uk!

[@yoppadipoppa9813]

I liki liki like it

[@richardhatt6541]

Ok, I finished one moccasin, as recommended by Tony. It came out really well for the first one. I have smaller feet for a man, but wide. I used the 7.5 to 8 and I did measure my foot before I started. There is no way I am getting my foot into this moccasin it looks like it may fit a 7.5 to 8 womens. My wife says finish them and send them to my mother. I will have to go up a few sizes for myself. They do look great!

[@richardhatt6541]

Update: operator error. I didn't read the printing instructions fully and didn't print the papers correctly.

[@Rattletrap-xs8il]

I've found that if you forget to put the lacing in beforehand you can push a plastic zip-tie through then tape the lacing to it and pull it back through. This works on all kinds of things like sweatpants, hoodies, etc. Nice shoes, I can't wait to get the pattern and make these and all the other ones I got from you.

[@chaseprins7171]

This is life changing, thank you

[@vasilijkuzmin6563]

Крутой мужик!

[@Name.Surname]

on the asphalt such a sole is destroyed in a day)

[@richardhatt6541]

Use a thicker leather for the bottom piece. 9 ounce leather will last you.

[@jaycastle9655]

Would you ever consider selling a pair of Moccasins?

[@MrZakirus]

How practical will such a sole be ? In my opinion, very thin skin even if you just drive in the car

[@no-page]

Please list the sizes you have someplace. I bought one of your shoe patterns and you skipped my size. I won't buy any more shoe patterns from you unless I know if I will get a size that fits me. Thank you.

[@DieselpunkRo]

the pattern contains all sizes between 2 and 13 US men

[@no-page]

​@@DieselpunkRo Tony, I can read. I want to know exactly which sizes between 2 and 13. You say there 15 sizes, but there are more than 15 sizes between 2 and 13, so you obviously left some out..

[@maaingan]

@@no-page do you not understand how shoes sizes work? there are much less embarrassing, ironic, and rude ways to reveal that you are confused by half sizes

[@no-page]

@@maaingan I understand how shoe sizes work quite well, including half sizes. I am neither embarrassed, rude, or ironic. Apparently you are totally ignorant of ISO 19407 which specifies shoe sizes in UK, EU, US, and Mondopoint. I asked a simple question, but I don't know why Tony won't answer. Since you seem to have the plans, could post which sizes are included?

[@DieselpunkRo]

@no-page check out the listing. One of the pictures has every size included

[@israelcontreras5332]

I love your stuff. But you need to free your patterns to be able to be printed at fedex or something. Many of us do not need nor do we want to have a printer. I just bought the pattern…but now i cant print it because fedex doesnt print it because of the copyright. Epic fail. I wont be buying anymore patterns until I can print them at fedex or the library.

[@jpeero]

charging money for the pattern is very lamge

[@maaingan]

Deerskin has been used for hundreds of years?? My man, moccasins are from Neolithic times and the Native Americans have been on Turtle Island for like 15,000 years. We have been using deer hides to make stitched shoes since before we were even human beings, still living in caves and trees

[@fjolliff6308]

Dude. He's not wrong. People have been using deer skins for hundreds of years. This isn't a history video. Would you feel better if he tried to estimate a specific amount of time? Like is there nothing else that you can say about a shoe making video other than " humans have used deer skin for longer than hundreds of years" ? Like... Duh, what else?

[@dumbphonemom]

A thousand years is just a multiple of hundreds of years. I think we all got what he meant.

[@spencer5553]

😂 you should start your own youtube channel letting people know how important this information is.

They are moccasins, boat shoes have thicker soles.
