Diy Leather Wedges

To create these wedges I used soles from my old destroyed shoes.

Their soles were very strong and they had perfect height.

The uppers of those shoes were totally destroyed

but the soles were just perfect.

real leather for example from old coat

but you can also use :technical felt, denim jeans

upholstery tacks

hammer or mallet

special glue for shoes

Disassemble both shoes

Cut new pieces of the shoes

use old pieces as a pattern

on photo you can see how it looks

Glue insoles to the shoes, put books or use vise and leave soles in that state for 24 hours

Glue all parts besides lacings

put the glue in way you can see on photo

Attach leather to the shoes with upholstery tacks

remember to secure the tacks with for example thick paper before you use hammer or mallet

They are two possibilities for doing it

Ready ''new old'' wedges :-)
