It seems the shoo fetish is commoner than I thought.

Part of this video talks about Vass shoos from 1:43 - 2:25 and near end

Here is a Louis Vuitton video which shows good machining techniques, but it is interesting because they slot someone doing a hand welt out of the blue and trying to make out that L.V shoes are hand welted, yet they use a machine laster. lt's all mixed up.

It's interesting how Ugolini outsources his lasts and then alters them inhouse to his clients measurements.

The luis vuiton video is really fascinating. Thanks for linking it Shooey. Ill have a look at the rest when I have a spare minute.
BTW I have a real suspicion that you're all a bit perverted and these videos do something for you that they don't for me, but it takes all sorts I suppose.
agree 100%. I probably know as much about shoes as he does. I'm a keen amateur.
He seems like a nice guy and of course the part of my post you quoted was a throwaway joke. I hope you can all see that. Shooey knows where I'm coming from.
All the best to you and the other perverts.
Shooman's great. "Too weird to live, and too rare to die" is what Hunter Thompson would have said.
