Members SheltathaLore Posted November 14, 2017 Members Report Posted November 14, 2017 (edited) The guy I learned to make shoes from (Jason Horvatter, from Laughing Crowe) is doing a kickstarter for an instructional video for non-lasted internal stitchdown boots, and I wanted to spread the word. I have his turnshoe video, and it's really great, so I'd expect this one to also be pretty high quality. I don't necessarily need it myself, but I'm definitely backing it, because it's a thing that ought to exist! So I'm trying to spread the word. For $20, you can download/stream the video, which is probably the most economical reward tier EDIT: this tier seems to be sold out (?), but for $30 you can stream/download both boot and turnshoe (although both I and Jason would be psyched if you wanted to back at a higher tier, of course). https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/villagevideo/make-your-own-foot-shaped-work-boots-instructional Mods, if this is too advertise-y, feel free to take it down; I'm just really excited about this kickstarter and trying to spread the word so that it has a better chance of meeting its goals.

electrathon Posted November 14, 2017 Report Posted November 14, 2017 I also know Jason. The videos he is producing are top notch. If you are looking to make a simple set of boots I highly recommend this video. Quote

Thank you to everyone who backed it!! Thanks to you for sharing the link. I backed it early on and watched with high hopes and crossed fingers. If I was close, I would take a class in a heart beat- but this is the next best thing. Quote
Members Jake907 Posted December 26, 2017 Members Report Posted December 26, 2017 @SheltathaLore so, now what? do you know how long until the dvd comes out? Quote -Jake North Country Leather and Wool
Members SheltathaLore Posted December 26, 2017 Author Members Report Posted December 26, 2017 They estimated 6 months. I assume if you follow the kickstarter, they'll send updates. Quote
