Leather Sneaker Workshop

  • Lark Design Make Studio, Cardiff (map)

with Nia from The Smug Soles Co.

Learn how to make your own unique leather sneakers in this exciting leather workshop with The Smug Soles Co. Choose your leather from a selection of colours, cut your pattern pieces, stitch your uppers together and attach your rubber soles to finish.

There will be a minimum of 3 leather colours available in either vegetable tanned leather or chrome tanned industrial waste leather.

Personalise by embossing your name or initials on the leather to give it that really personal touch.

Choose on the day from super low rise, low rise or high top style.
