I use a ready made sole as a template for cutting out the new sole with my measurement,next I cut out a very flat long strip then cut a v like shape out of it this will be the top part of the slippers ,next I cut a thin strip of half inche wide& 5inch long this will serve as a grip BTW the big toe.

I made a deep slant vertical cut(1inch)on both sides of the sole & one horizontal cut in front, next I inserted the v shape strip cut in the vertical spaces & nail it down with shoe nail,next I punch a hole at the center of the v strip and inserted the 5 inch strip I inserted the end in the horizontal cut and nail it down, I wrap the order end on the v strip with a colourful thick leather and pin it down this will serve as stopage.
