You need to know what you want the finished product will look like. So you have to have a plan to follow. Take a couple of minutes to draw your design ideas for the shoe. Think of the general form of the shoe as well as the types of fabrics and materials you will use to make it. 1. Begin on the sole. The sole needs to be made out of stuff like leather or rubber. Why not use the soles from an old pair of shoes. Get a shoe in your size and draw around the sole, remembering to cut out two soles,timberland womens boots,one for the left foot and a reversed one for the right foot. Otherwise, look in an op shop for an old pair and take the soles from those. 2. Make the “upper” of the shoe. Here comes the part where you have a bit of leeway.
It just needs your decision of the kind of shoe you want. Do you want a boot, sandal, or runner? Mostly a mould called a shoe “last” is used. Expand the last to the required size of the shoe you want. Cover with material or plastic and tie it tightly over the “last” so it does won’t move.

This is easiest addressed by getting some from a shoe store. They will be the most comfortable. Stick them to the inside sole of the shoe with a proper shoe cement - crazy glue won't work. 6. Make eyelets for the shoelaces. If you are having shoelaces, just snip cut down the front middle of the shoe. With a hole puncher, cut out six or seven holes on each side of the flaps you have just created. Ensure they are well aligned. Thread in some shoelaces and your job is done! timberland boots for women, You've just learned how to make your own shoes!
