Make your Own Trainers Workshop

Step into the world of sneaker making with this two-day leatherwork and stitching workshop, where you’ll design and create a pair of bespoke trainers that perfectly reflect your personal style. Under the expert guidance of leatherworker and cobbler Ben Jones, you’ll learn the skills needed to craft unique, durable, and stylish shoes.

Choose from a variety of leathers (with vegan options available upon request), colors, and accessories to bring your creative vision to life. Whether you prefer bold, eye-catching designs or classic, understated styles, the choice is entirely yours. With Ben’s support, you’ll master essential skills like working with patterns and cutting leather and fabric. The course concludes with you hand-sewing your custom uppers to your soles, resulting in a wearable piece of art.
