If:
– you live in a developing country and would like to start a small business making sandals for children in need of them
– work for a non-profit organization committed to helping people start small businesses
– have financial challenges in starting a sandal-making business
I will send you the PDF of How to Make the Simplest Sandals at no cost. Please email me your request, describing your situation; non-profit organizations, please send link to your website or inform me of your work in some way.
Keep in mind that these sandals are made from recycled materials – for instance, I suggest using discarded flip-flop soles as soling and used handbags for straps, but I encourage you to discover the materials best-suited for use in your own environment. I am now experimenting with using different types of discarded carpeting as soling material.
I request that you send me photos showing the fruits of your endeavors and I wish you good fortune in your pursuits!

I will like to get a copy of the ebook for learning purposes,to learn to make sandals to help those in need.
GREETINGS, if you would like to receive the book for free, please send your email address so I can send you the pdf, best wishes, sharon
Hi: I had a foot injury 9 years ago which wasn’t dealt with at the ER correctly. I should have been seen by a podiatrist ASAP, but I didn’t for about 9 months. By that time it had turned into a displaced great toe. I am unable to keep a lot of jobs due to the fact that I am supposed to wear shoes less that three hours per day. I have insurance that pays for one new pair of diabetic shoes each year, but he deformed foot is almost impossible to fit without buying two different pairs each in different sizes. That doesn’t happen ever! And, I am a leather worker. I have simply never tried my hand at making footwear. I am in the process of gathering information. If you would extend your offer to me I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!
I realize I am answering this much too late to be of use to you – but I would like you to know that I am using this technique to make “custom no-gathers moccasins” – https://studio.youtube.com/video/k99gKpZiST0/edit – for a woman born with deformed feet. She is now trying on her leather mock-up, it seems to fit so I’ll finally make her actual shoes– best wishes, sharon
