MAKING PROCESS

For you to craft out a shoe, what you must first do is to know/measure the foot size of the the person you're making the footwear for, here the foot size of the the person is size 44.

I started cutting the skin material which I'll be using for my shoe upper, I also cut the Marco material for the insole, and then, cut the lining materials for both the shoe upper and the insole.

_{After that, I placed the cut upper of the slippers on the lining to cut out it shape, I also did the same for the insole, before finally Sewing the lining together with the skin material for the upper of the slippers.}

I applied gum on the edges of the upper and joined it together, then tested it on a shoe last, attached the thing robe in the front, and cover it with a skin material, before pressing and Sewing it, and last puting it between a silicon tube.

I attached the GG logo.

constructing the insole, punch a hole on it and attached the upper to the insole.

Going into the final stages, I applied gum on the back of the insole and the inner part of the sole, and then attached it together, I also applied super glue on the edges so it can stick together very well.
