Learn the art, leave your mark.
Individual courses for future instructors.
A living school, like a workshop.
Our masterclasses are designed for those who want to go beyond curiosity: an immersive experience alongside our masters, to really learn the craft of the custom-made shoemaker.
We receive students from all over the world. We teach how to make shoes, but also how to think and manage work as a real laboratory: organization, relationship with the customer, tools, materials, stylistic coherence.
Each course is individual, tailored around your experience and goals. From the first lesson you work directly in the laboratory. You can start from scratch or hone skills you’ve already acquired. We speak Italian, English and Japanese.
From the first cut to the complete shoe.
During the masterclasses you will address every step of creating a custom-made shoe. You will follow the process from start to finish, always working with the direct support of a master craftsman. Examples of content:
Construction of the shape
Making the pattern
Upper cut and hemming
Hand assembly
Welt and sole stitching
Polishing and finishing
Care of the aesthetic line
Work and customer management
One course, a thousand paths.
Our masterclasses are aimed at those who dream of becoming a craftsman, but also at professionals who want to improve.
Each course is adaptable in duration and intensity, based on your starting level and your goal: work, open a shop, integrate new skills, or simply get to know our world up close.
Available languages: Italian, English, Japanese.
