What to expect
You'll arrive at the studio and receive a brief on sandal anatomy and construction methods. The artisan will walk you through selecting materials, cutting straps, and assembling the sole and upper. Expect hands-on cutting, gluing, and stitching—messy, satisfying work. The pace suits beginners; the instructor adjusts guidance to your speed. By hour four, you'll have shaped, stitched, and finished a wearable pair. Bring an apron or wear clothes you don't mind getting marked.
Good to know
The studio is wheelchair accessible and pram-friendly. Nearby public transport makes arrival straightforward. The workshop suits all fitness levels—you'll be seated and working at a bench, not standing or walking extensively. Bring comfortable clothes; the work is fiddly but not strenuous.
