How to Accurately Measure Your Feet | HANDMADE | Shoemaking Tutorial

Shoe lasts are the blocks that you build your shoes on. The lasts influence the size, shape and heel height of the shoes. There are no universal standards for manufacturing lasts so they’re available in thousands of different shapes and the sizing is graded differently from one factory to another, this is why you can vary in shoe size from shop to shop.
In this video, we will show you how to accurately measure your feet so you can pick the perfect size lasts for shoemaking.
