Instructions
Make Your Own Homemade Shoes
- 1
Lay out your tracing paper and step on it in your bare feet. Trace the outline of your feet with a pencil.
2Draw a sole around the outline of your feet, leaving half an inch on each side. You should end up with two shapes that look like the soles of shoes, with your feet traced inside them.
3Cut out the soles on your tracing paper.
4Place the cut-out soles onto your rubber sheet and trace the shape onto the rubber. Cut out the rubber soles.
5Measure the length of width of your foot, starting from the ball of your foot moving horizontally across the top of your foot. Write down this measurement, likely somewhere between 6" and 9".
6Cut the length of this measurement with scissors, plus 1 inch, from your leather or nylon strap. Then cut another piece so that you have two pieces for both feet.
7Pin one end of the cut leather or nylon strap onto the sole, starting where the ball of your foot will rest. Draw the leather or nylon strap horizontally across the top of your foot.
8Sew down the leather or nylon strap with 1/4" of an inch of strap sewed to the sole. The sewing should be hidden once you wear the shoe. Repeat with the other shoe.
9Cut two pieces of 12" leather or nylon strap.
10Step onto the rubber soles in your bare feet, and mark in pencil where your instep hits the sole.
11Sew each of the remaining leather or nylon strap horizontally across each rubber, where you marked the instep of your foot.
12Step into the shoe. You should have a band of leather or nylon across the top of your foot near your toes and two long, loose straps.
13Take the loose straps and make an X with them across the top of your foot, like you're tying the ribbons to a ballet shoe.
14Cross the straps across the back of your ankle so there's an X-cross on the front and back of your ankle. Wrap as many times as desired and tie into a knot.
15Trim any excess leather or nylon from the strap.
