How To Make Classic Loafers | Shoemaking Tutorial

In this video, I walk you through how to make a pair of classic loafers!

To make some for yourself, you will need:
• Our Loafer Shoemaking Pattern: https://www.icanmakeshoes.com/collect...
• Flat Shoemaking Last: https://www.icanmakeshoes.com/collect...
• Flat Soles: https://www.icanmakeshoes.com/collect...
• Your chosen leather / material: I suggest something between 0.8 - 1mm thick with a soft-medium temper. Usually, a cow hide is the safest bet for the uppers and a soft cow hide or lambskin will be great for the lining.
