Handmade Leather Sandals by Wilkie Sucher

Sandal season is here, and what better way to celebrate by showing off those toes in your own custom pair!

Join us for this new & unique workshop where you will learn the art and process of making a pair of custom leather sandals. Starting with personalized measurements, you will learn to use leather tools, create a pattern, and carefully cut and handle your natural vegetable-tanned leather.  This is an intensive workshop which could last from 6-8 hours so be prepared to settle in, make new friends and soak up this rare opportunity to learn the art of shoe making from a skilled craftsman.  Free feel to bring snacks, and take breaks. All materials will be included.

Bring a friend and receive $20 off your order!  Email Root General to receive special code.  
The workshop will be equipped with:
Hands on instruction by leather craft maker, Wilkie Kwok

A light lunch
