Making Leather Shoes - Bespoke - complete Handmade process

[@GladysRWhite]

It has been such a pleasure to watch your work! I wish you would explain the steps of what you do. Wonderful! Thank you for sharing!!!

[@dianainthezone]

What a pleasure to watch true craftsmanship! It really helps to show people exactly how much has to go into creating good shoes that can last LONGER than the sole of the shoe. As well as why the cost may seem high but what you get will last a decade instead of months.

[@amandasuperlegal4030]

Now I totally understand why handmade dress shoes costs thousands of dollars.. and it is totally acceptable and justice for that pricetag after seeing this video. Astonishing work!! Breathtaking ♥️

Right? I need a nap after watching this, because I'm feeling taxed. Hahaha. In my mind, I'm adding up the time and effort, and I'm like, I wouldn't take less than 5k if I had to do all this.

[@iaido01]

i have a few bespoke shoes and they do why more than you think. i always wondert how the can make such a thing and use so much time on me for only 3.5k

[@abelis644]

What's neat is that people had all shoes custom made before mass production. Shoes probably used to fit people better.

[@mattah]

@@abelis644 this is absolutely not true.

[@paintedwings74]

@@abelis644 It very much depended on your income level and your cobbler. Some would have standard sizes and churn out adequate shoes for workmen, which would still be hand-made, but not custom and not great quality. But others would indeed provide the best fit for every adult in their community. Also, you can see why, from this video, so many children once went barefoot as much as possible!

[@kenolson3064]

I will never complain about the cost of a good pair of shoes ever again. I particularly enjoyed the small detailed procedures. They had the feel of ten thousand Generations of craftsmanship.

[@abelis644]

@J Hemphill People have made footwear since the first person stepped on a thorn of in snow... That's forever... Take a look at Ötzi's boots sometime, the 5000 year old man found in the Alps. People copied his shoes and said they were the most comfortable footwear they'd ever worn.

[@Katrina-mi2gm]

Thank you very much for posting. My father was a shoemaker and I spent my childhood watching him hand - making shoes, from creating a last to finished product. Even now, more than 60 years later, I could identify your processes and tools. Greatly appreciate your craft.

[@rohanchaudhari9111]

do you know what material he used to cast the shoe last? I've been wanting to make a custom last for my feet and make leather shoes for myself and family... Maybe start a custom sneakers business after.

[@Katrina-mi2gm]

@@rohanchaudhari9111 Unfortunately, I can't help you with regard of material used, but it could be a medium hard plastic type. My father ( and please do remember that it was over 60 years ago) had standard wooden lasts in male/ female sizes. After taking individual measurements he would ' build the last up' using pieces of leather, eg, the width in all areas or arch support hight could be altered to individual parameters. You can get standard plastic lasts on Etsy, or possibly other sources. There is also videos on KZbin by podotools with information how to customise standard lasts. I hope this helps. Best of luck to you.

This was great to watch my father in law and brothers in law all make bespoke shoes, I used to watch them making them and learned how through them mostly father in law. He made them for 55 years before he got I’ll and passed away, watching you do this brought back good old memories, my love of all thinks bespoke, came from him, I had already worked in Jones the boot makers N’Hampton so my father in law gave me the most knowledge about real handmade shoes, he made me two pairs that I keep as my feet got older and bunions appeared, he was I. The middle of making a pair for my deformed feet before he passed, I kept the last and leather and all he’d made till this day, though now none of his sons work as bespoke shoemakers now, we all still love to get shoes made not bought off the shelf, cost more though i it’s worth it as they fit perfectly and last for donkeys years.

I feel like, in order to get to this level of skill, you can’t be doing this as your job, or your hobby. It needs to be your calling. It’s not just going thru the motions. There’s artistry and care in those hands.

Wooooow! Best looking pair of shoes I've ever seen. Great craftsmanship and dedication to work. Your attention to detail is beyond a normal human. I love them. How can I have a pair made please?

Hello, thank you very much, you can contact me by email, it is in the description of this video.

Were you able to get one for you?

[@Alex-tt1vp]

You saw how this person made it. Make them yourself!

@@Alex-tt1vp lmfao "make it yourself", are you dense? You try making a pair of shoes from scratch.

What a wonderful process! I´ve never seen the process of shoemaking, so much work, so arduous. Thank you very much for sharing. I've got two questions just out of curiosity (and ignorance): 1) have you considered making the molds as a 3d scan and then printing it? is that possible? could it be faster? 2) have you ever been asked to make leather sneakers. I would suppose that's a thing Again, thanks. Beautiful work.

[@alexandrefaure7247]

Hello thank you very much. Yes it is possible to 3D print, I just don't like this way of doing it and it's not faster. When you draw a shape on software, it's not the same thing as being able to actually see it, touch it, see the final result. For the sneakers, it's not in my current projects because it's not very interesting to make it custom. It is easier to find comfortable sneakers on the market than dress shoes.

@@alexandrefaure7247 what did you cast your last with?

[@flyingcat2054]

The most detailed construction of a last I've seen! I always wondered how to do it by hand.

[@zdrowie978]

Making leather shoes by you is an art, a work of the highest quality. I speak as a specialist technologist - designer with higher education in this field. I'm delighted. Bravo a thousand times to you!

Alexandre, excellent craftsmanship. Please keep posting. Chapeau!
