Home Made Slipper

S.B. Foot Brown Spitfire

Heard about the dome a couple weeks ago and thought it was a great idea. I’ve never made footwear before, and I’m happy with what I have so far. Next step will be to bring in the top of the vamp a bit and clean up the edges. If I have the time (and enough of this heavy veg tan) I will replace the soles and add a second stitch.

More about this item

The vamp is S.B. Foot 6oz Brown Chrome Tan, and the sole is Sepici 10oz Natural Veg Tan. The pattern is the same as a card sleeve, only instead of building it around a card I built it around my foot.
