Handmade Leather Sandals: Super Cool
Date Added: December 16, 2008 03:57:47 AM
Individually made shoes are hard to find now. Mass produced shoes are so much cheaper to manufacture, the rarity of cobblers who can make custom fit shoes is combined with the barrier of having tailored shoes produced being a terribly expensive privilege per pair.
Sandals leather handmade sandals offer an alternative. Leather sandals are easier to construct and use less material than a pair of shoes so they'll be cheaper than a custom pair of full coverage shoes. They also can be made with the remnants, the leftover scraps of leather, from shoe making, or leave less scrap when leather is cut specifically for leather sandals, meaning they're environmentally friendly as well.
Sandals custom leather crafted are long-wearing and stand up to rough terrain. They are also pliant and they breathe, which is totally unlike synthetic fibers or stiff woven ones. The straps of leather sandals are more pliable and cradle the feet more willingly instead of trying to make your aching feet conform to them.
Sandals can help with orthopedic needs, though they won't keep your feet as warm or as clean as regular shoes. They are perfect for warmer climates, and the added airflow can help you with a case of present of future athlete's foot, as well as some types of toenail fungus.
Leather sandals obviously don't fall under the category of vegan, but they do help ensure that every part of the animal is used. Sandals don't create a need for slaughter, but they do create a use for a part of an animal that would otherwise be wasted, which means fewer animals are being killed for the same reasons. |
