As I have started with shoemaking, it was laborious to collect all necessary tools to get started. Here I am offering shoemaker starter kits, which comes with all tools you need like shoemaker hammer, lasting pliers, shoemaker knife, fudge wheel and awls. Additionally, the sets include a collection of shoemaker books, which provides you knowledge in pattern making and construction of handmade shoes. If the sets are sold, please write me a message and I can make a reservation for you.
