Main Steps Explained

1. Measure heights

Picture
Eg H=30, S=10

2. Remove old

Picture
Use hands, screwdriver, pincers, heat ... in that order or using your best judgement.

3. Cut 2 leather edging strips 20-40mm wide 

Picture
Cut with knife rather than scissors for a quick and neat look.
Choose softish pliable leather. Trim ends square.

4. ​Stitch leather strips around shoe

Picture
Stitch with our gluing if you can.
​Glue if needed so leather will be 1-2mm above glue line. Don't pull too tight, else shoe will be tighter and a little scrunched!

5. Glue and fold leather over

Picture
Glue up under the new bit of leather. Fold over and knock with hammer. Grind flat if it scrunches up at toe and heel. Lightly sand so next layer glues.
​

6. Run edging around

Picture
Low wall in this case.
If using high wall you may find it helpful to grind the inside of the rand out on a slight slope to make it fit better.
Aim: Both shoe the same..
If you have to put the Edging out a bit to get the right shape and it tilts downwards that can be fixed with extra eva in the next step.
