@Tinkerton, grain side is the outside. The flesh side is inside and the side you glue. Also, it's a good idea to scuff the grain side as it will be a little on the slippery side at first, and maybe that's what prompted your question.

Ha, just occurred to me that this is an age old questioned that man has wrestled with since the dawn of time -- flesh or flash? I think the answer has been flash for a long time. Here's one of the oldest pair of shoes ever discovered -- 5,500 years old. Looks like Flash to me. ;-)

I was looking at you shop - I love the red little purse you made with the geometric stamping. Very cool! I haven't tried lacing, yet.

Lacing is cool but time consuming, but so beautiful , love to braid as well ''mystery braid'' with 5-7 strands, little more challenging than the regular 3 braids.

I have started a pair of Flip Flops !!! It is more steps and time consuming we would think at first.... will post picks ...eventually as work gets done.
