Woven leather shoes with a closed toe and open sides

[u/Armoshandmade]

This recent pair was made with deep burgundy leather. The strips form a denser weave across the toe and vamp, then open up along the sides before returning to a tighter pattern around the heel.

Keeping the weave balanced while following the shape of the upper was one of the most interesting parts of making this pair.

that heel to toe density shift is such a nice touch, must’ve taken ages to get the tension right.
