Making a Pair of Bespoke Shoes | A Journey Through Shoemaking History | John Lobb | Kirby Allison

In Episode 2 of our "Journey Through Shoemaking History" with preeminent British bespoke shoemaker John Lobb, work begins on the upper construction of Kirby's first pair of shoes from the iconic shoemaking firm. Crafted totally by hand by skilled artisans, the pattern for a pair of bespoke uppers is created by hand specifically for that pair of shoes. The pattern is then used to "click" or cut out the leather and then an upper maker carefully and precisely stitches the uppers together. In today's video, we are offered a glimpse inside this ancient and profound craft - a tradition that, at John Lobb, has continued unchanged since the firm's founding in 1849. 📽 WATCH OUR OTHER JOHN LOBB VIDEOS 0️⃣ Inside the Original John Lobb: https://youtu.be/pc_TsO2lfUk 1️⃣ My First Commission: https://youtu.be/uQv1AGx4TLE ➡️ Upper Making: https://youtu.be/xIlEn4zKJrY 3️⃣ Preparation of Rough Stuff: https://youtu.be/cG2hRSE4aaE 🔁 John Lobb ASMR: https://youtu.be/7tlf9sOyeg4 4️⃣ Bottom Making: https://youtu.be/qto3aAsRacI 5️⃣ First Fitting: https://youtu.be/aoGv1Sq_nns 6️⃣ Delivery: https://youtu.be/81ydScwQ75U 🔍 MORE ABOUT JOHN LOBB 🔸Instagram: @johnlobb1849 🔸Website: https://www.johnlobb1849.com 🙌 SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL 📽️ Join this channel to support our content with independent craftspeople and artisans: https://www.patreon.com/kirbyallison 🛒 Shop All Kirby Allison Products: https://www.kirbyallison.com #bespoke #johnlobb #johnlobb1849 🌟 OTHER SUGGESTED VIDEOS 🔹 Inside The Origi
