stanly Report post Posted November 1, 2013 (edited) I admit to total slipper/shoe ignorance....is this just so difficult /crazy that no one does it? I've got these slippers that the sole wore out on, it was kind of thin anyway (Fabric and plastic). Of course as turnouts they have the welt? on the inside.

electrathon Report post Posted November 1, 2013 Without seeing the slipper design it is hard to say for sure. Bbut yes, you can likely do it with enough time and effort and money (materials). It may be easier and faster and better to start from scratch and make a quality pair. Aaron Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The main stitching goes through uppers and 2 layers of sole w/ thin layer of padding between them. 3/8"- 1/2" seam allowance. This looks close http://www.vikingson.../kit-fig30h.htm 2 ways to do this? A. stitch heavier yet still flexible piece in as footbed, then turn slippers rightside out and glue outer sole on. B. remove old sole, turn seam allowance to outside and stitch sole on. this leaves the uppers layer on top of the welt. Suggestions, comments? Guess I should have asked for more than a yes or no in first post. Edited November 2, 2013 by stanly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
