MAKING HANDMADE SHOES: A STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE: Traditional shoes with hand-sewn welts and pegged heels amzn.eu/hHdHwkL
I received my book here and wow, you need to write more books as it is really outstanding. The pics are awesome and the insight is a blessing. You really did a great job and so very handy. Ohio USA here and Great job Harry! Green woodworking books next!
Thanks very much Bonnie, that's great to hear, thanks.
Harry I’m so pleased there is great interest and demand for your book. Looks like a labour of love. Knowing your videos I’m confident it will reflect the great teacher you are. I’ve ordered mine today
Thanks very much Alison, I hope you enjoy the book.
I really hope you are well. I admire your competence and generosity. I got your book today. One of the best. I understood everything I needed to start construction of my new pair of shoes. Book is extremely clear and widely explanatory of all details in the process of constructing a shoe. Will never stop thanking you.
Just ordered the book. Thanks for all the time and effort you put into it. I’m so looking forward to reading it! ❤️🙏🏻
Wonderful! I hope you enjoy reading it...thank you All Good Life.
Just ordered I even got free delivery using a "Pick-up location" in Wales UK saving £3
I did enjoy you boot making series were you included all your problems. I have a an engineering background and now my hobby is old sewing machines and wood work.
I would say I have learnt more by making mistakes than getting it right first time...... I have to admit I have learnt a lot if you know what I mean ;-))
all the best
That's great...thank-you
Started leatherwork as a hobby from a Christmas gift and loving it. Just ordered your book. Made a flat pair of leather sandals last year and now making a pair of flat ballet pumps. Having trouble getting a last in my size so made a resin plaster mould of my feet. So far so good. Looking forward to reading your book as I work my way through your channel. Don’t why it took me so long to find out about you but huge thanks for all the videos. Those shoes were amazing would love to make my partner a pair. Keep up the excellent work.
@@jillhaywood1850 Thanks very much
I bought your book it took about a week to arrive as I live in Canada. It will take a couple of months to get my supplies together, a last, some other tools. time to make my first pair, make a Ton of mistakes, make another pair, etc. I let you know how I got on using the book as a reference. Thanks for putting this book together, the photos are good too. Drew
Thanks Drew, and I hope you enjoy the make.
I've ordered two copies of your book. Thank you, Harry! May the Lord bless you and keep you!
Wow thanks Lee, and I hope you enjoy the book.
Already received my copy from Amazon USA and I am really impressed by the quality and the content. I highly recommend purchasing this book.
Thank you very much
Your book is FAB!!! So informative!! Easily understood! Thank you Harry!!! A wealth of information!
Thanks very much
Hi Harry, just ordered my copy in the USA. My favorite shoes/boots for hiking and general everyday wear are bespoke ones made with a duct tape mold. These have been available from makers through the craft and renaissance fairs for a long time. My pair are "zero shoes", i.e., a very low heel. I have grown to like this design a lot. I would like to make my own shoes one day, and maybe with the help of your book this will actually happen. Have a great holiday season!
Thanks that's great Plakor.
My copy of your book just arrived! It looks wonderful! Thank you so much!
Thanks very much Kim. It you get time to post an Amazon review some time that would be super helpful, and thanks anyway for your very kind comment.
Congratulations on your book! I ordered and received it last week. I’ve been following your channel for years and really appreciate your inspiring videos!
Thanks that's great 👍
Hi Harry, just received my copy of the book. I think it is wonderful and I will recommend it to my fellow students. Thank you for the effort you have put into this work.
Thanks Tony that's great, I really appreciate that..Best wishes Harry
I have the feeling that this will be a book actually about MAKING shoes not just shoe making if you know what I mean!
And yes I just ordered my copy on Amazon in Canada.
Thanks Harry, I’m excited about this one!
Thanks Chris, and yes you are absolutely right, it is actually making in lots and lots of detail.
@@harryrogers I knew it would be with you as the author! Can’t wait, thanks for sharing your knowledge Harry.
It came today, lovely book. Thanks Harry.
Thanks very much
Couldn't buy this quick enough. Fabulous. Looking forwards to it arriving.
Oh excellent thanks Simon.
Bought it. I dont think I'll make shoes. Bought it to support you, as your youtube videos are inspiring, informative and well presented. Im into leathercraft.
'Ordered mine this evening. 'Looking forward to working with it. I make leather goods and leather pram shoes for babies. I have been wanting to get into shoe making proper and this will spur me on I have no doubt. Thanks for informative videos and now the book! Cheers Harry!!
Oh wow I like the sound of your pram shoes, thanks for buying the book.
Great harry!.. iv just ordered . Bargain!
Hi Matthew, yes it's great for everyone. I am delighted that even for a short time people can grab this bargain.
Just received my book today in the US. Took about a week. Looking forward to reading it.
That's great Ron...thanks
I was going to get my wife to get it for me as a Christmas present. I think it was Friday or Saturday the price was £11! So I got it! Looking forward to the book as I have a different book on cowboy boot making with the worst vintage black and white terribly printed pictures. I think it will help fill the gaps with the cowboy boot making as some of the steps seem pretty similar. Be lovely to make my own shoes as well. Add it to the never-ending list of projects! Cheers mate
Hi Robert, yes I saw it yesterday evening but interesting it might have been reduced since Friday or Saturday...that's good, I gather Amazon does that when a few are going out the door as they have economies of scale. I think the construction processes will be very similar. I have avidly watched Kirby Allison and Texas Traditions with Lee Miller on TH-cam. I cover the critical measurement for getting your foot in a boot in the pattern making section of the book. Thanks Best regards Harry
I'd just like to add that currently it is showing as $15.07 on American Amazon for anyone that is curious.
Just ordered it and really looking forward to reading it (and hopefully eventually making some shoes using the information)
Great thanks very much.
I just received my copy today! It looks great!
Thanks very much
Congratulations on publishing this content! Great job (and effort) on including so many visuals to complement the written instructions.
Thanks Scott
Mine just arrived last night.
That's great...thank you. I hope you enjoy it.
looks more official than 80%.. my master is Hungarian and i can see just by your flip through
a buyer would do well here. thank you, kraig jillson
Hello Kraig and thank you. You are very lucky to work with some of the best. Best wishes Harry
wow only 11 pounds, good to hear its doing well. the book being so thick indicates you learnt quite alot.
Yes I certainly did, I still think it's good to get on a shoemaking course, but not everyone can, so I have given all the steps to help someone make some shoes for the first time. Best wishes Harry
hi lol my friend I buy your book today in amazon spain,when a read I put a rewiuw,maibe 5 stars,thank best regars
Hi and thanks very much
Already out of stock! So truly popular. Congratulations!
Thanks it's print on demand so hopefully it will arrive soon if you do order it.
Ordered mine in the USA, looking forward to it. Hard to find books with this kinda info.
Thanks very much, yes I found it difficult and that motivated me to write the book to help others enjoy this craft.
Hi Harry, I have my copy already, live in NYC.
Thanks very much Patrick
Good luck Harry. What a shame I can’t get it in Australia.
I am sorry Angela
@@harryrogers don’t be. I’ll probably get a family member to send me one if I can’t get one any other way (I’m British, living in Aus). I’m so, so pleased for your success with this book. Your videos are a delight to watch - thank you.
Gotta work on that mirror video setting on your camera so things aren't backwards. I'm not a fan of mirror being on by default, but there we go.
Flip it around, Harry!
Hi Skeeter it's good to hear from you...can I do that in phone for the camera on the screen side? Sorry I need to improve my phone video skills!! I might try and Google it haha
Just learnt how to do that thanks Skeeter.
@@harryrogers Good luck with the book.
I just went to Amazon UK to buy your book and they state that it is temporarily out of stock. I hope that they are back in stock soon.
Yes it should be, it is a print on demand so should be available in a day or two...hopefully! Thanks
@@harryrogers I bought it from Amazon UK, and it has already been delivered. Thanks for your reply.
@@dianeanderson5323 Thanks Diane and Happy New Year
Hi! A stupid question perhaps, but is there someone i could order custom lasts? I would like to make my own tabi boots. Springline is not too responsive. Maybe because i am from Estonia and not the UK :(
Spenle Germany can help as they have a proforma for custom lasts. I have not used them yet. There are other suppliers in Europe such as Podohub. Hopefully others will respond and help further.
Reader supplies the mirror I guess? 😂
Haha very good...I am obviously missing a film on the phone trick...sorry!!
I have just learnt how to...thank John.
Hi, is there a reason all the print is mirror image in the video please
Thank you.
Haha yes I needed to change my phone camera settings hopefully I won't make that mistake again. I am not very good with phones, but getting better....sorry about the reverse image, maybe a free mirror next time!
@@harryrogers No criticism intended. I was just concerned. The book looks excellent. Thank you for including lots of photos.
@@RB-wl7ct No absolutely ....thanks though. I usually use a camcorder, but the phone is so easy for a quick video update! Best regards Harry
BTW Harry, why were those shoes in the last video so TALL?
Haha, if you mean the clogs, it's to counter the huge amount of toe spring due to the inflexible wooden sole.
oof i should've jumped on this when i saw that the price was 13 dollars...now it spiked to $24.99
Yes I think Amazon was selling it at a loss at that point, it's usual price is 25. They may do another special some time as it is selling very well, and they tend to do that when a good number are being sold.
Can I have a soft copy
Hi the paperback is on Amazon and I may do a Kindle version later.
Any chance it will be released as an e-book?
Possibly next year....more formatting!
I would definitely get it as an e-book.
@@sebir3403 yeah I am unable to buy it at the moment :( so I'll also wait for an ebook
Can you post a link to it?
MAKING HANDMADE SHOES: A STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE: Traditional shoes with hand-sewn welts and pegged heels amzn.eu/hHdHwkL
Yes..thanks.
just a quick question. Do you need a sewing machine to make shoes?
Hi Michael a sewing machine is helpful but certainly not essential. One can hand sew all the seams very happily I show some stitching chisels for the hand sewing in the book. It's how they were made before we had machines. Thanks for buying it.
I've got mine, Its a cracker.............Cheers
Thank very much. If you are able to give an Amazon review some time that would be great but no worries if not. Thanks again.
@@harryrogers I will do. No problem.
@@harryrogers Review submitted 👍
@@thornwarbler Thank you so much.
Out of stooooock Q_Q
Sorry, it is print on demand...it took 2 days for me to get one on Prime so hopefully not much delay for you.
@@harryrogers Now it is (supposedly) on it's way ^_^ Hiphip! ...this probably means I need to make a pair of shoes does it not? :D
@@Alagachak Yes absolutely!! I am pleased to hear it's on its way...a bit slow....sorry.
...and it is out of stock.
Hi Ivan, it's print on demand ...usually very quick..took 2 days for mine on Prime...sorry if its not so fast but they should do it pretty quick.
Ah, l see. l watched this video (actually, l noticed now that l missed the previous one) with half attention, because l'm specialized on turnshoes at the moment. But concrats for new book, it is a hard work (l know, l do also several small books about living with traditional methods). Perhaps l'll put an order in some time in future...
@@ivan55599 Thanks Ivan, I like the sound of your turn shoes.
Podría decirme donde puedo comprar este libro.
Buenos Diaz...Amazon
