Description
Over the course of this step-by-step video tutorial of 04h30 minutes, Lougaya demonstrates how to make a pair of moccasins with laces in 3 different styles (under the ankle, above the ankle, and lined with sheepskin). The whole tutorial is about three and a half hours of teaching, divided into small sections that are easy to view and replay at your own rhythm.
Along with the video tutorial, you will get a PDF tutorial that highlights all the details to remember in written explanations and clear images.
You will also get two whole sets of printable patterns (for the runners and for the boots) that will cover all sizes and morphology types, from size 32 EU to 48 EU / 4 US women to 14 US men.
Just like a second skin…
Our moccasins are like barefoot or minimalist leather shoes, 100% in leather. In fact, they truly are like a second skin that can be worn on all occasions and on all grounds. If you are looking for natural footwear with high sensory feedback, you’re at the right place.
We are convinced that even people without prior experience in leather work, sewing, and shoe making can complete this project quite easily.
The great difference with most other moccasins and patterns that you can find on the market is that ours are made to be adjusted exactly to the morphology of each person.
We are convinced that even people without prior experience in leather work or sewing can complete this project quite easily.
With practice, a pair can be made in only 3 to 4 hours, but it would usually take about 1 day on the first trial.
Patterns should be printed in A4 or US letters. If you are not able to print the patterns at home, please send us a request.
The tutorials also cover the topics of choosing leather and tools, making soles, leather conditioner, and more.
To make good-looking and comfortable moccasins, you need to find very soft leather that will easily pucker around the toes. Ideally, it should be thick as well (1.8 to 3 mm thick / 4 to 6 oz leather). We know that such leather is not that easy to find, especially when you can’t go to a leather shop in person and/or that you are a novice.
