A pair of sandals that fits just right is a highly prized possession—and all the better if they are attractive and one-of-a-kind. Create a pair of custom hand-stitched leather sandals to enjoy for years to come. Students will spend some time sketching ideas and discussing execution, working from a few basic designs the instructor will provide. Students will then hand cut and hand stitch their sandals, adding a leather sole with a waffle tap for traction and waterproofing. The course will include learning skills that may be applicable to a number of other leatherworking projects.
