I start the process of forming the insole then move to cutting, skiving, glueing, and sewing the leather. Each step has its own techniques and processes. What do you think of handcrafted boots? And do you think this is a craft that should die out or keep living? Let me know in the comments. In Part 2, I create the pattern out of her foot measurements. This process is called geometric pattern making. I have a pre-recorded course on my website if you’d like to learn this technique. Www.Schmidtsboo
