Non-good shoes From the skin with your own hands

It has always been believed that good-quality shoes can only be purchased in the finished form. But in our article we will explain how to sew a beautiful comfortable shoe yourself.

You will need a lot of different different materialsbecause Each has its own features. Typically, shoes require a lot of skin consumption, and we will tell you how to do with minor reserves, how to use small pieces.

Let us dwell on the selection of raw materials. Shoes can be made of drape, fur, felt and, of course, skin. Some materials are perfectly combined, for example, sprocket and artificial fur. For the above-handed parts, it is desirable to pick up soft leather or specifically process them until the desired softness is achieved; For the steleke, it is quite soft, unpainted yuft. If the insoles are double, then the bottom lifted from a dense durable yuffy, and the upper, internal - from soft yofty, fur or tissue. We will later tell you about the soles later, most importantly, do not forget to always process it additionally, you can use knitwear for lining, woolen fabrics, flannel, fur.

So that the shoes are exactly sitting on the leg, you will need to remove several measurements. Take a centimeter and wrap the widest part of the foot at the bottom of the fingers (1); Far in the place of the greatest lift (2); Measure the oblique rise around from the lift through the heel (3) and the thinnest place in the bers (4). For a more accurate cut, measure the length, the width of the foot, the distance from the fingers to the rise, the protrusion of the heel, the greatest heel height (Fig. 225). Home shoes serves to relax, so it should be very comfortable. It is better to leave a small allowance so that the shoes are spacious enough.

If you have some skill in tree processing, we really advise you to make a permanent block on the shape of the foot. The ego is completely easy. Construct extra areas on the workpiece, taking into account their measurements, and round the irregularity of the skin. Drink a block from the board with the outlines of your feet. It is very useful for you when finishing the sole.

Also today, many shoemakers sew shoes manually and connect the details with the help of the drab. For its preparation, 2-4 yarn threads twist, which are then rubbed with water and wax. During the sewing Var fills the holes, strengthening the seam. But now it is more common to sewing very strong caprony threads. In order to simulate a line, use a seer with a needle at the end or a conventional round seer - into the hole at the same time enter two needles (Fig. 9).

In this article, we use the rich experience of different masters. Surprisingly comfortable and simple performed by Lapti (Fig. 226, a) suggested in his book I. Lukovski.

This soft light shoes are performed from a solid piece of skin with a way to pick up. Cut the insole separately. Size, select Figure 226, b. There are various shapes of the sock. Approximately spread a solid piece of leather or assemble a cloth. Put your foot on it and make a correction after fitting. If the number of folds is too large, small wedges are needed. The remaining edges can be left free or shaved. Small thick folds look better, but they should be placed more often than 1-1.5 cm from each other. Prepare a durable soft strap is not wider than 0.5 cm. The backbone is built with a separate strap, free wedge stick inside (Fig. 227).

Draw a pattern, grasp the bending allowance, adjust and glue 1 cm (Fig. 228).

Slide the insole and make slots for the strap (Fig. 229).

Collect "Napti" on the strap, please special attention On the beautiful arrangement of folds in front (Fig. 230). Stick or enter one of the way the sole.

The following models of slippers are more traditional. The easiest sewing option is to attach a transverse strip to the sole (Fig. 231).

Put the leg on the insole, cover the strip from above and stick it to the insole, taking into account the lifting of the legs. Excess edges cut. These operations are done first with paper items. Gently disconnecting them, you get the pattern. Measure the length of the insoles along the edge and make a braid or leather strip for Kant. The ends of the strips are compatible at an angle of 45 °. Cut the insole of edging or braid. The ends of Cant over the entire length are grappy to thin the skin, then you can sew a cap to the insole. The braid can be performed from a thin lace or dense thick threads (Fig. 232).

Slippers with a closed toe are warm. For the manufacture of patterns, you can use some old slippers that fell at home. Speeding them on the seams, circle separate parts on paper and transfer to the skin. It is better to take advantage of solid slices of skin or a nonsense symmetric set.

Slippers with an open back shown in Figure 233.

Prepare the sole, the insole, the two sock details - the top with the décor and the bottom - from the same material as the insole. Together with both parts of the sock, the top edge will deteriorate. These slippers can also be treated by Crate. In this case, the upper edge of the sock is processed by either edging or fur. From fur you can paint and insoles. Sole with an insole rub the foam rubber (and better - vitel) and glue. Connect all together and swell lectured edges. Arrogors indicate the sequence of operations.

Slippers with closed backdrop linked otherwise. Sole, insole, two top symmetric parts Make out of the skin or from the same material as the insole. The upper parts are connected to two seams on the sock and the back. On the sock, first come up with the sequence decor. Details of the lining are connected in the same way as leather, and glued with rubber glue to external. On the inside edge of the slippers, treat intern. Slide the top of the slippers with a shell with rubber glue by 0.5 cm from the edge. Turn the sneakers in crate or braid.

Most suitable leather For home boots (Fig. 234) - suede or sprocket.

The boot consists of 5 parts: front, two symmetrical sidewalls and tongue (Fig. 234, a). Straighten your tongue approximately and customize to the desired form last. The inner shoe from the warm lining is cut in the same way, but height by 0.5 cm is less than the outer. Connect the sidewalls and the front part of the seam to turn (Fig. 234, b). Single top edge cut on no. Seams back down the hammer. FROM invented side Mix linen strips to them slightly smaller lengths and angry (Fig. 234, B). Connect the top of the boot with the insoles of the feeding seam. Both details fold the front sides inside and strive (Fig. 234, d). It is best to perform a line with thick threads manually, piercing holes with a seboard. The skin moisten with water and leave the edge to the sole (Fig. 234, e). Remove the shoe is obvious and jump back with a hammer. Insert the lining. Stick further soles to the insole and cut the heated hammer over the entire surface. The sole can be sewed as indicated in Figure 234, e. In front of the part, make holes with a 3-mm bandwidth and approximate your foot. The tongue is left on top and apply close to the front of the boot, adding 3 mm on the braid. Digid a straight edge to no, the globe is properly. Connect the tongue with the shoe braid with a leather lace (Fig. 234, g). Check that the lining and leather shoes exactly coincided without forming folds. The unprocessed top edge of the shoe is adjusted inside 1 cm, overlapping the edge of the lining, and step by 0.5 cm over the entire length (Fig. 234, h). To the sole from the inside glue a warm insole. Shoes, similar to this, were worn in antiquity.

The following model (Fig. 235) is original and very comfortable in the sock.

In such boots, everyone will feel well. They lie from soft, dense and very elastic skin. Pre-drawing paper pattern, transfer it to the skin and material for insoles and soles (Fig. 236).

For shoes you can come up with a decorative set (Fig. 237).

In the case of handling shoes, edging skin pieces with a typewriter. They can be both one and several colors, but necessarily one texture and softness. You can dial skin pieces in the cloth with a thin braid, and all parts of the boot are connected to a wide strap. Consider that boots should be soft. Therefore, the braid straps choose not tough and not very thick. Pre-piece skin strings (preferably online) and swell (Fig. 238).

Strap braid lubricate glue. After you get a solid cloth, cut the top of the boot. Measure the centimeter (and better thread) The length of the lectureline sole. It must coincide with the lecture line of the top of the boot. If they differ slightly, then in the place of the rear seam, add or reduce the desired value. Do not forget to break holes for lace. Billets glue with lining. Do it out artificial fur with a short pile. Compare the rear seam on the machine. If you have chosen treatment with a braid, then decorate the backbone, but consider the rear seam braid should not be very thick, otherwise the strap will run the heel. Now you can glue a soft fur insole, connecting with the upper part of the shoe, and to be treated by Crate. Its length is equal to the leenal length of the edge treated, width - 2 cm; Cant edges Couple at 45 °. Kant constantly stretch. Still ready-made boots on the sole. In the case of a braid, glue the insole with the sole, cover the top of the shoe, the edge is properly and swell. Upper edge also handle braid or edge. Insert the lace in the holes, and your shoes are ready (Fig. 239).

On the same pattern it is easy to make peculiar bess if used as a lining warm materials.

Choosing a model with braids, do not forget that they are intended only for the smooth floor and are quickly abrained. Therefore, connect the main seams on the typewriter, it is better even doubling twice, and then invent decorative braids.

If you have houses old things that have come out of use, from born skins, then you can sew warm fur shoes. In this case, the upper part and the insole are cut out from this skin, single-wall and stitch through the stitch through the edge. The fur is cut, gently slipping the scissors under the fur layer and cutting only the skin itself. You can make it possible to make the skin on the typewriter, if the skin is not too thick and a short pile. Shoes are turned and pasted on the sole. Facial You can decorate with embroidery, fringe, leather applique (Fig. 240).

Now, when we told in detail about the manufacture of home shoes, I want to introduce you to several samples of summer shoes for the street - sandals.

Out the sole, circle your foot on paper. You can use rubber, plastic or even the finished sole. Surely you have at home preserved some old sandals. Clean and polish the soles and proceed to work. If you cut out the sole of the skin, pay special attention to the strength and plasticity of the material.

The feature of the sandals is that they must be raised to small heel. Flat sole It is very harmful to health, besides, heels prevents the rapid abrasion of the sole on the heel. Heel can be cut out of a single piece of thick skin or join two layers. The sides glue, firmly squeeze and leave to dry under the cargo per day. So that the surfaces are better glued, clean the inner side by the skin. Heel can be glued both to outer and to the inside of the sole. Glue the heel with the sole and put on the day under load. Cut the insole from YUFTI.

Subsequent operations are performed by the same type for different species Sandals. First, think about how sandals will be mounted on your foot - strap, woven pigtails, and draw an exemplary sketch. Having invented its model or choosing from the proposed by us, make measurements on the leg (Fig. 241).

For this cut out paper strip And he will overtake it in those places where the straps will be. Add 4 cm on each side to the allowance. Note a selection on the insole of the place to make straps. Do not cut the insole closer than 5 mm from the edge. Then thread the straps and tight tight the sandals on the leg. Do not pay attention if soft insoles bend up. Strap glue on the wrong side of the insoles. Before this, the batteries on the wrong one must be sherry. Internal sides of insoles and soles Clean the skin, glue and leave under the cargo per day. For the straps, select only very durable and soft skin. Otherwise, they quickly respond and hurt the leg. In Figures 241, 242, we offer several sandals options.

Some we found in the book I. Lukovski, which was already mentioned, other models are invented during the times of antiquity. Indeed, in essence, today's models may somehow repeat the known samples. Also pay attention to the possible weaving straps. The straps should fit tightly to the leg, as the skin is very stretched with the skin. You will have to do a stronger insole connection and soles. Sille Pierce the sole from the middle of the diagonally and sew a durable capron thread to the insole.

Homemade shoes are traditional among many nations, so we want to remind some samples. They will help it easier to navigate and create new models. Amazing beauty shoes were created by masters of Tataria. Books and samples in museums are preserved - multicolored boots, sneakers with unusual patterns of soft leather. If this topic is interested in you, be sure to look at Tatar Ichigi - boots from ram or goat skin with a soft sole. Interesting feature Such shoes are a figured carved backdrop. Figure 243 shows several characteristic Tatar ornaments.

And such a model of shoes (Fig. 244) is common among the Caucasian peoples.

These soft warm boots seemed to us uncomplicated in performance and very comfortable. Such a model is necessary for older people. It can be combined with leather and knitted details, Sleep, fur - in a word, all warm materials that will be at hand. Cra is shown in Figure 244, a. First, connect the lower narrow strip (1) with a wider (2) flashes so that the bottom find on the upper one. Watch that the lectureline is a narrow part of coincided in length with the sole. From the side of the back, pon the edge of the edge and manually sew (Fig. 244, b). Soo hide under the tongue expanding to the bottom. Upper item (3) Bend in half and compact the insulation. The tongue (4) is also connected from two parts that are mediated or broken with a strap from four sides, except for the bottom (Fig. 244, B). Make a lining from warm knitwear or fur.

The model can be changed: Take out the detail (3) of the skin and fur (Fig. 244, d). Sew two boots - one of the leather parts, the other - from the fur. Compare them together at the top edge. The sole can be attached with a penetrating seam. The upper part (parts 3 and 4) are sung to the bottom in a circle so that they overlap the edge of the part 2 (Fig. 244, e). Finally process the shoes of the edge or braid.

For children, you can make very fashionable models now in the form of funny animals (Fig. 245).

In some products (for example, boots) you can make knitted pulling inserts. Thanks to them, you can do without straps and fasteners.

Home Slippers woolen socks You can do, sewing leather soles. Sometimes they are made from new socks. But it makes sense to improve in this way of socks that begin to climb the feet. I'll take out two soles from the boot with a bunk at 7-10 mm. Smoothly sew to the wear sole without a special blank, it is unlikely to succeed. Instead of blanks, try tightening the sock on the smaller boot. Send the sole of thick harsh thread zigzag suture.

On slippers (Fig. 246), except for two leather parts for tops, cut out from the boot's top, will go what has long been in the house without a case: the top of the old felt board (for soles), slices of foam rubber (for soft gasket), cloth flap or Drapa from old coat (for stelk). What "sandwich" are located these parts in the final form, shown in cross section ah. The edges of the details are covered with an edging from a leather strip forming a wide rant. All this is connected by large stitches with the help of two needles sewing towards each other.

A simple cut of closed home slippers is shown in Figure 247.

But the greatest success is waiting for a home shoe in the manufacture of soft shoes for kids. Very simply cut the leather slippers-moccasins (Fig, 248).

It takes only one seam on the mile. It is necessary to tighten it so that small folds formed along it. You can make two seams on the heel, but for home shoes there is no need. The finishing fringe looks better on the suede. Inside the finished moccasins, insert the insoles, putting the grooves from porous rubber to them.

Sewing shoes - very laborious occupation. But you can maximize the model on your foot. Shoes made with your own hands, and more pleasant, and will serve longer. You can try to do and good shoes For the street - do a completely upper part, and the sole will strengthen in the workshop. We remind you that connect shoes only with plastic adhesives, since when wearing shoes are constantly deformed. "Moment" is very plastic glue, but comes only for home shoes, as moisture is afraid. Recently, many new compositions have appeared that even a thick sole appear to fix it.

No wonder there is a saying "Comfortable as home slippers": what could be more pleasant when you come home, remove the street shoes and you get into the cozy, soft, nowhere gone and not rubber slippers?

There is only one "but" in this convenience - very often these cozy slippers have a not very attractive look: diverse, often - stopped for the convenience of placement of legs, shabby, and sometimes even rubbed to holes ... To find a reasonable compromise between the convenience and Elegance, we suggest to do footwear With your own hands: Elegant moccasins or original slippers slippers.

Surely, many after these lines will think that making shoes at home - the occupation is too complex and troublesome, which will require special skills and ingenious tools, ownership of some technologies and at least the initial professional knowledge of the shoe business ...

Those models of home shoes, which suggests today's publication, taken from one old edition, designed just for amateur creativity. Therefore, we will only need patience and ability to keep thread with a needle, everything else: the pattern of shoes, detailed description work, step by step instructions - attached, it remains only to correct the drawing under their size and proceed with the case.

In order to sew moccasins or shoes, we will need:

trimming of natural or artificial leather (you can use the tops of old boots);
trimming felt, felt or drape, if there is no skin at hand or you do not want to work with this material (Ideal for sewing a home shoe fit an old coat). Also in the work can be used old boots;
braid or silk harness;
glue - you can use a universal "moment";
cardboard;
thick threads;
as a sole can be used as trimming of very dense tissue and ready-made soles from old slippers.

How to sew slippers

To sew stylish slippers appearance Similar to original shoes, prepare for a start template of the future sole. On sheet dense paper We put the leg, we supply the contours of the foot with a pencil and, retreating from this line 5 mm (i.e., making the allowance), cut out the workpiece.

We place this pattern on a piece of skin, felt or drape, we supply chalk and cut out, thus making the sole of your home slippers. If it seems to you that the fabric is not sufficiently dense, then fold it into several layers and take it with threads - thus it turns out the sole of the desired thickness.

Side straps are cut out of the skin flap of the desired color: the width of each strap is assessed by an experimental way, based on its own preferences and convenience. To accommodate these parts, the entire sole side of our slippers is provided. To find out the length of this part, measure the leg in the lifting area (the part of the leg, which the football players beat on the ball), divide this result by three and add 15-20 mm - the resulting value and will be the length of the sole sole.

In order not to spoil the material, we recommend first to make a paper shoe layout, guided by the obtained measurements, thus checking the correctness of the calculations and compliance with the desired appearance of domestic slippers. The form for the manufacture of lateral details patterns can be taken from the figure below.

The template is imposed on the wrong side of the skin flap, drive ballpoint ball and cut along the contour. At the rounded end of each billet, the lace hole is done. Small trick: If there is no sewn at hand, then the neat opening can be made with scissors: for this, the workpiece is folded fourly, as shown in the drawings, and cut the corner.

By making the desired number of lateral parts, they are glued to the sole in such a way that the length of the part be lubricated with glue does not exceed 15-20 mm. While the glue dries, we will deal with the aesthetic side of our work: cut the insole from the cardboard on the existing feet pattern and tighten it thin cloth. The fabric can be selected in the color side details or on the contrary - to create a contrast to them, it all depends on the taste and wishes of the wizard. The decorative insole is wedged with glue and glued over lateral parts to the main insole. All the product is put under the press for several hours.

The final stage of manufacturing our domestic slippers will be pulling the cord or decorative braid through the openings of the side parts. The ends of the cord are tied by a node - in some cases, the node is impregnated with glue so that the cord does not break through.

If in the lateral details, it is not one, but two holes, then the type of connection can be slightly changed, to make a cord through each of these holes and tie its ends on the ankle. If necessary, make a more reliable fixation of the shoes on the leg, you can make two additional inserts on the sides of the heel part, through which the lace also has been taped and is tied on ankle.

Based on this pattern, you can make another type of home slippers, the difference of which is that the lateral parts in this model are used less, but they are wider and slightly shorter than in the previous ones. Another difference of the model is the central insert-tongue, which can be decorated with ornament, embroidery or embossed.

Side parts and tongue cut out of the flap of the skin, in the places of overlay side parts and in the center of the tongue make pair vertical cuts through which the cord has been done. The work begins as the center of the first two models, from the manufacture of the sole. Inserting a tongue is attached to lateral details after the workpiece is extracted from under the press.

For its attachment, we use the method of weave the harness - see the drawing below.

Do not forget that before sewing slippers from the harvested material, it is recommended to make a pre-layout of the paper to check the accuracy of the calculations and the convenience of planting shoes on the leg. So, for example, many newcomers often make a mistake, making side details too long - such shoes do not fit the foot and delivers many inconvenience when walking.

Also, it is worth remembering. That in the manufacture of slippers, in which side parts are located not only in the socks of the insole, and along its entire length, the height of these parts in the heel region should be slightly more than all other similar billets.

Another version of elegant home shoes is beautiful moccasins with insert in the central part. Such elegant, soft and cozy "boots" can be decorated with embroidery in ethnic style, sow beaded, decorate the fur, fringe or any other decor. The peculiarity of the pattern is that, unlike previous models, moccasins are much more close to the leg and have an all-circular backdrop. At the heart of Croy this model - insole.

Stages of making patterns:

To make the scan of moccasin, the insole is put on the sheet of paper, they will roll up and connect the extreme points of the heel and sock, getting a central line.
Then they determine the lines line: the foot is put on the insole, the pencil makes the transverse marks on both sides of the insoles at the level of the junction of the lower leg and the foot - these points are connected to the line perpendicular to the central one.
Through the extreme points of the contour of the heel (along the edges of the heel), lines parallel lifting lines are the backs of the back.
Then on the lift line, ranging from the contour of the insoles, lay the sizes of the side parts of moccasin. The height of the slippers in this part is selected arbitrarily, depending on the preferences of the wizard: the greater the importance of these parts, the higher the ankles will be closed. Having retreated from the lifting line 5-6 cm, the contour of the suture of the shoe is reduced.
Special attention must be paid to the back: It is located exactly around the middle of the heel line. Its width is equal to the width of the heel, and the length should be the same as the length of the side parts.
Parallel double strokes on the pattern are shown locations where you need to make slots for braid.

How to make an insert tongue

To calculate the insert sizes, it is recommended to navigate the insole size to the lift line. Length of the tongue - arbitrary. If desired, the edge of the tongue can be made figure.

Special attention should be paid to the fact that all lines of cut are very smooth, without direct and sharp corners, which, with stripping and sewing, allows you to get a neat silhouette of slippers, without chances and folds.

As in previous models Home shoes are recommended to first make a paper layout by checking the correctness of the cut and making the necessary adjustments.

How to sew slippers-moccasins: phased assembly of details

On the pattern, all the locations of the details are shown by points. It is most convenient to work if you have previously in these places to do the holes with a seboard or a thick needle.

To the outside of our workpiece gluits a pre-harvested sole, and in the inside - insole, climber covered. For several hours, the product is put under the press, after which they start assembling parts.

The weeding part of the moccasin is assembled along the upper edge on the thick thread: tightening it, customize the shape of the footwear on the leg, after which both ends of the thread are tied with nodules. Then through the edge or any decorative seam from the outside sew insert. If desired, the tongue can be decorated with ornaments - it will give the finished shoes elegant view. The remaining details are connected in the same way: sidewalls and backs.

Through the slits, the lace, tape or decorative braid, with the help of which they fix shoes on the leg. If there is a small amount of fur at hand, it can be used for decorative finish Upper edges moccasin.

The fur lies with a blade from the wrong side, making a preliminary markup with a pencil or a handle, and sewing "through the edge", the needle of the needle, correcting the veins, pressed by threads. In some cases, the tongue is made from fur - such moccasins look very impressive and elevated.

Shoes - an important element fashion Image. In the end, if you wear boots all day, why not wear them with a chic? Make your own pair of shoes at home is possible, although it is quite difficult if you do not have experience. When you learn how to do everything yourself, you do not have to look for the desired shoes in stores. Little looks as interesting as a unique pair of shoes, and when you miss your hand, you will begin to enjoy the process itself.

Steps

Preparation of materials

Decide what shoes you want to do. If you decide to sew shoes, you must represent exactly what you want to get in the end. Shoes' types are very much, and you can do what you want, - your choice is not limited to the loft, sneakers, sandals, shoes or straile shoes. Think some shoes most suitable for your personal style.

It will be useful to make a couple of sketches. The drawing will allow you to more accurately think about the design.
If you never sewed shoes, it is better to choose something simple. Sure ordinary shoes on laces, without making them too complicated, and you will have many options for design.

Draw, find or buy stencil. Before sewing shoes, it is important to carefully think about the plan. You do not want to make decisions on the run. Sewing shoes is an occupation that requires accuracy, and the slightest error can spoil all the work.

Get some parts from old shoes. You can save a lot of time and make shoes more accurately, if you use parts of old shoes. It will be useful to you, because they will be the basis for which it will only be necessary to sew the top. If the old pair of shoes did not wear out to the limit, get those parts from it that you will be used to work. Make everything neatly and slowly, helping yourself a sharp knife.

Buy other materials in a business or specialized store. Certain elements will depend on the type of shoes you choose, but, as a rule, you always need several sheets of skin and dense tissue.
- If you do not have sewing supplies, you will have to buy them or take someone.
- Rubber, leather and fabric will become the basis of shoes.
- It is best to use the sole from old boots or buy a new one, but you can also make a practical and water-repellent sole of several layers of traffic jams. Each layer should not be thicker than three millimeters.
- Buy twice as many materials than you think you need to have enough luck.
Cut out the sole. If you bought ready sole Or took it from the old pair of shoes, you do not have to do anything at this stage. If you want to make shoes selfishly whole, you will need to get several layers of traffic jams. The plug is nice spring and does not let the water.
- If you have already sewed the top of the boot, you can use it as a template for cuts, although the best of the stencil is best.
- Here you will come in handy a pad. Cut out the sole from the plug, leaving a little space around the pad to make your feet than to breathe.
- If you want shoes to be higher and spring, use 2-3 layers of cork. Cut the same soles and glue the layers superclaim.
- Give glue into the soles to frozen.
- You can make a heel, putting another layer of cork under the heel.
Sust and glue all parts. To sew fabric to the sole will not work - at least you will also need glue. Apply glue with a thin layer and evenly. It will make the shoe waterproof and more durable. If in accordance with the template you need to make some more seams, make them.
- Insert the block in the boot. So it will be easier for you to rely on the shoe and see where the seams should be when you will do fine work.
- If you are well managed stitches, do not be afraid to sew a piece of shoe in the original method. The stitches themselves are a means of self-expression. If you feel the desire to diversify stitches, try to do something unusual. It is important that these stitches are strong enough to withstand the tension.
Cut the surplus fabric and add patchwork if you want. By this time you have to appear more or less functional boots. Insert the laces if you have not done so. So that the shoe looked better, cut the extra fabric. If somewhere the seams turned out uneven, you can cover their layer of fabric or skin. Now you have the basis of the boot - it remains to come up with how to make it beautiful.

Footwear handmade It is in great demand due to quality and durability - usually handmade is based on natural materials, requires higher demands on the quality of finished products. Accordingly, the price for shrinking manually shrinking will be higher in comparison with products that are stitched on automated production.

Manual shoe firms

Even in the age of maximum automation shoes made manually, is not something in color. Classic English production, which are highly valued all over the world:

Loake;

They produce shoes from genuine leather And suede stitched on handicraft production. Production stages are significantly larger than with mass automated manufacture. Course can be manufactured for a month, depending on the type of material and complexity of the form.

As for the shapes and designs, the most popular shoes in manual execution are:

They differ in the type of lacing. Oxfords have a closed lacing, hidden the front of the shoe. The side parts are sewn-like, perforation is possible.

Derby, on the contrary, have an open lacing, and the side parts are spinning over the front in such a way that when untaring the shoe lacing the boot freely diverged. Derby can also have perforation and is considered the most versatile shoes for any occasion.

The entire structure of the shoes is divided into the upper and lower part. As part of the upper part, such elements are:

Sock - closes his fingers, withstands the greatest mechanical loads during the sock.
Allice - closes the back of the foot and connects the sock, tongue and berth.
Berthi - close an ankle joint, they are sewn up to the world.
The lover is the top of the shoes intended for holes or lacing hooks.
The backbone - protects the heel and stop, fixes the heel, is made of rigid skin.
The tongue - covers the upper part of the foot, sewn up to the world.
The insole - connects the upper and lower parts.

As part of the bottom of the product:

Sole - stitched along the contour with the upper part, it is divided on notes, healer, rant and filler.
Heel - lifts his heel and attached to the sole, the top layer can be rubber.
Naboyaka - protects heel from wiping.
Range is a binding element between the details.
Protective inserts - prevent abrasion of the lower layer of the heel.
The filler - fills the space under the insole, increases comfort when operating.
The supinator is a wooden or metal part, fixed between the sole and the insole.

Knowledge of the design of shoes allows you to make every item better quality, according to its purpose.

Stages of manufacture

It will take a lot of time for making shoes with your own hands, but the process itself is simple and depends mainly on the correctness of measurements and the quality of the source materials. The whole process can be divided into nine stages.

Without this stage, it does not cost the tailoring of the shoes by an individual order, the same applies to clothing. Removing the measurement is mainly carried out to measure the parameters of the future pad.

Prepare the blocks by the standards, sew a preliminary layout. To create it, sew through the finished pad from fine genuine leather. Here you should decide what kind of model will be at the model, as seams are located, there is a picture or perforation.

The workpiece for the future pair of shoes is cut out of the sheet natural suede or skin. It is important to leave a small population on compression and seams - it is not necessary to cut down on the contour of measurements, otherwise the shoes will be small at least size.

Stage notes

Stitched on the patterns tops of the future pair of shoes are connected together. This is a time-consuming part of the work, since when the upper part of the boot, it may be necessary to determine the skin, the entry of the edge, its tinction.

Tensioning the workpiece

At this stage, the shoe is already ready for the future pair of boots, as well as the upper part of it. Now this upper part in the literal sense is tightened to the previously prepared block. At this stage, laying the insoles is the most important step, since it depends on the correctness of its styling.

Ransti stripe

The growth is called a thin leather strip, connecting all parts of the shoe, already stretched on the block. This invention belongs to Charles Houder - due to its technology, shoes can be embroidered in places of connection with the earlyness and fixed in the case of, for example, cracked pads, soles.

The sole can be made of different materials - they should be clarified in advance from the customer, having prompting him the most suitable option To the desired pair. Often make leather or rubber soles.

The sewn soles are strengthened by small carnations - the masters use them for the directness and reliability of the heel. The latter is gaining from thick skin into several layers.

Staining soles

After sewing the sole and stuffing the heel, it is necessary to paint them in the desired color - the choice of color depends on the tone of the boot. When drying the applied paint, the pillow is polished to apply the master marking of the wizard.

Polishing

Manual manufacture of boots ends with the most important stage - polishing and bringing to the perfect state of the finished couple. After polishing, it turns out even, elastic, perfectly cleaned steam with durable connections.

The leather jacket diverged on the seams, was pretty lost, and there is no possibility to bring it in order. Do not rush to part with her. It is possible that some of her fragments will still serve for you more than one year - in the form of a handbag, wallet, jewelry, and even sandals. Do you think that the shoes do it yourself - the case is a troublesome and time consuming? Not so much scary. With simple models you will probably cope. Or maybe it is your interesting designer idea that can conquer the world? About what shoes can be sewed if there is no sufficient experience, we will tell in the article.

What is the skin?

Before making shoes, it is very useful to figure out, with what material you may encounter. There are several types of skin. Her quality is influenced by very many circumstances. For example, by age of the animal, the following types are distinguished:

piping;
opake;
output;
neuly;
half-shine;
full weight skins.

Important! Piping is an animal skiing in the womb. The skar of the newborn lamb or calf is called the title, three-month, and that which was fed vegetable food, - the output. Necrisses are a semi-annual animal skunk, half-beds - one year old. Finally, the skin of a complete mass is made from the skin of an adult cattle.

The quality of the selection

As you know, leather shoes and clothes are made from the skins of a variety of animals - goats, cows, sheep, buffaloes. You can meet such names:

morocco;
morkin;
shagreen;
parchment;
yuft.

Important! Safyan, Morkin and Shagren are made from goat skin, with a small content of fat. However, sharpening is still sheep. The skin of the skin is a parchment, in antiquity from it not only sewed clothes and shoes with their own hands, but also made books that are preserved to our time. It is now applied in binding.

Yufta is made from horse, pork or deer skin with a good fat content. This material is subjected to a dubbing of the Yves bark. It happens different thickness. In total, you can do, for example, engraving.

Differences from the type of raw materials and the method of manufacture

Different processing methods are used in the leather business. Sometimes different varieties are obtained from the same skins, depending on the technology. These are such types:

husky;
kid;
peter;
kozlina;
velours;
suede leather ;
spille.

Here is what distinguishes them:

Like is a very thin material. Make it from the skin of the animals not born or from the Ookyka.
Goat skins go to Kozlin and Shevro, but the peculiar, despite the similarity of the names, get from sheep skins.
For velor use chrome oak. The upper side is grouped.
To obtain suede use fatty bubble. To turn out suede, take dust or deer skins, but it may be the skin of a wild goat. Very high-quality material, soft and light, but can be very pulled out.
If it is suede to separate the layer, it turns out sprocket.

What kind of skin for what is needed?

Before sewing shoes, it is necessary to choose the appropriate material:

For the manufacture of gloves, ne is commonly used, because it is extremely elastic and exceeds all bends.
For jewelry, everything is suitable for bags, good or safyan is suitable for bags, but for shoes?

One type of skin is hardly satisfied. The sole should be resistant to abrasion, so the material for it should be chosen thoroughly and rigorously. For example, youth. And what is the top of? Best Material - Safyan, but much depends on what exactly you are going to sew.

Important! Safian boots in the old days worn and men, and women, the material is beautiful and durable. For men's boots, it was used and unefty, especially if a person had to walk on uneven roads in any weather. But for graceful female legs, for example, suede is suitable.

Instruments

Pursuing how to sew shoes yourself, think about the tools. Leather shoes or boots will have to do hand - it is unlikely that you have a car that has a machine capable of working with similar materials. Although the old household cars "Singer" or "Podolsk" perfectly flashed even the toughest skin. But in any case, some of the works have to do without a typewriter.

You will need tools and devices to sew shoes with your own hands. At home you can find:

Remove mercies

How to make shoes, shoes or just slippers so that they are fit and have not been tired anywhere? First you need to remove the measurement, for which you will need the most common centimeter tape:

Measure the widest part of the foot - for this it is necessary to wrap a centimeter around the base of the fingers, and so that it does not twist.
Measure the girth of the foot where the highest lift point is located.
Determine the height of the lift by turning the centimeter from the highest point through the heel.
Find and measure the most narrow place.
Measure the foot length (you can stand on a sheet of cardboard or paper and circle a foot - only the handle should stand strictly vertically).
Determine the width of the foot (you can track in the widest part).
Calculate the distance from the fingers to the lifting.
Measure the ledge of the heel.
Determine the maximum height height.

Slippers

If you want to sew homemade shoes with your own hands, the master class does not take much time. To begin with, it is better to try to make slippers without soles. Sewing nothing will need - the top is formed due to folds. For this, a solid piece of skin is needed, rather mild, but durable. The pattern for this model is also not needed:

Estate the skin with an inlet.
Put your foot and circle the foot.
The contour is divided into approximately equal segments.
From each point, swipe perpendicular towards the edges of the piece.
Set on each line segments equal length - from 7 to 12 cm.
Connect the marks of the smooth line - you got a double feet.
Cut out the workpiece along the external contour.
Behind, make a cut from the most protruding point heel to the top edge.
Synod that you succeed, and put up with folds.
If the folds are very much, make wedge-shaped cuts and sew edges.
Backdock Connect the strap.
Free edge swell.
At a distance of 0, 5 cm from the top slice, ween holes and thread the leather lace.
Separately cut the insole - it is better to glue it or set.

Important! The folds should be placed more often than 1-1.5 cm from each other.

That's so simple enough you were able to sew shoes with their own hands.

Slippers slippers with sole

What makes the sole for shoes do it yourself? From smooth thick skin. The option is simple - you can cut on the lecture, you can draw the insole directly on the skin. As for the top, it is better to choose soft skin for it, but other materials can be used - cloth or any other dense fabric:

Cut out the sole.
From leather or tight fabric, take the top.
Speat manually top to the sole.

In this case, the question inevitably arises: how to carve up? It is a trapezium. For him, we need measurements:

girth of the feet at the level of lifting;
hacking fingers;
the distance from the highest point of lifting to the base of the fingers.

Now consider how to sew shoes with your own hands step by step:

Draw a straight line - it will be the upper cut.
Cancel your fingers on it.
Divide the segment in half.
To the middle, spend perpendicular.
Set off the distance from the lifting to the bottom of the fingers.
After this point, swipe the line parallel to the first.
Put the feet at the level of lifting on it.
After that, you only have to collect the product - to sew the top to the sole.
You can pave the braid along the stitching line.

Such slippers Pantalls are excellent summer footwear With your own hands, you can already hold a master class and yourself.

Important! The top can be carved and simply in the form of a strip, having exceeded it along the leg, and then cutting up too much.

Slippers with closed toe

They are sewn almost as previous ones. If you do not really want to independently build a pattern, write some old sneakers of a similar LED and circle over them. They can be with a seam in the middle or without it.

The sequence of work will be the same as in the previous case. True, decorate the product you can different ways - From the application to embossing.

Sew sneakers with your own hands

Sneakers are more complex shoes. But nothing impossible is not to make it with your own hands. Light sneakers consist of 8 parts:

soles;
insoles;
2 symmetric sidewalls;
2 front parts;
2 tongs.

The sole and the insole are made in the same way as for any other shoes. Just need a small heel - the sneakers are glued inside, the shoe is outside. The heel lies in the sole, and the edge is stepping. Put a tongue about it, and then ponate under right size - This can be done after everything else will be ready.

Important! On the edge of the sole, take a 0.5 cm.

Top part

In order to make the pattern of the top and sew such shoes with their own hands, the measurements will be needed:

lifting height;
distance from the highest part of the rise to the end thumb:
distance from the sole to the highest part of the lift along the outside of the foot;
the distance from the sole to the highest point of the rise on the inside of the foot.

Important! Top part It may be composite, then the leaps need to be cut into several parts and carve out individual elements, and then sew them.

Blacks pattern

To build an outdoor pattern, spend a straight line - it will be the front seam:

Postpone on this line the distance from the highest lifting point to the end of the thumb and put the point A.
By the opposite end of the middle line, spend perpendicular.
Set aside half of the lifting height on it.
Connect this point with a dope and the arc, the convex part of which is directed from the middle seam.
Similarly, pick up the second part of the transition using appropriate measurements for this.
Note on the sole of the point of combining on the external and inner sides of the foot - they are located where the front parts begin and end.

Sidewalls

The sidewalls are the same and are stripes. The length of each is equal to the distance from the combination point to the middle of the heel, the width is 7-8 cm. It is possible when fitting the cuts that will be fed to the front parts, align the neglection.

Sisting front seam.
Side the sidewalls.
You can strengthen the heel with a soft gasket - it is done in the form of an oval or rhombus.
Side sidewalls to front parts.
Top suite to the sole, connecting the combination points.
Align the allowance.
Conduct and sew a tongue - 1-2 cm below lacing.

Important! Sneakers will look good and without decoration, but nothing prevents sticking the application and even attach the glowing elements.

Sandals

Summer leather shoes must be with a height. Cut it on the pattern of the sole, arouses only the back, and go well:

Cut a long paper strip.
Wrap it around the leg and look at what location of the straps you will like the most.
Determine the places where the straps will be attached to the sole.
Make in the appropriate places of the opening.
Put the required number of straps.
Plore their ends into the holes.
