Making leather boots for harsh Northern winters

in homesteading •  7 years ago 

I am glad you posted this. I just harvested a nice goat hide that I am going to use to make my first homemade boots. I just cant stand to waste dollars on the crappy, overpriced, slave labor produced commercially available footwear any longer.

Definitely share with us how they turn out! I agree...even if I had to make one pair a year I would still prefer boots that are from renewable resources and that I can feel good about...and that are beautiful and comfy :)

I will. I just got my cd with 75 books on leather craft so I can start my project. It will be awhile but I am looking forward to the day I post about my first independent shoes of peace.
