Measuring LLD in Footwear using a shoe-horn

Every shoemaker worth their while will have a shoe-horn. Did you know that a shoe-horn is also a useful tool to find the actual Leg Length Discrepancy any pair of footwear is adding to the client with an LLD.

Thanks Bill... Always look forward to you releasing a new video. Would you ever run a Derby shoe course for interested amateurs?

Not specifically I spend all my teaching time when I'm not actually making shoes, on the Two Year Pattenmakers Certificate in Bespoke Orthopaedic Footwear. There is how to make patterns and the uppers for a Derby shoe as part of that course.

Hi,I just saw your video of how to measure foot for bespoke, I was wondering, is it possible to 3D modeling a foot using Iphone that have lidar, so that you can bespoke a shoe remotely instead of measuring it by hand in person. THen I saw you touch the bones and I feel even remote 3D modeling is realistic I'm afraid that can not be as precise as touching the bones by hand.
