What you’ll learn

Students work with leather, microfiber, and fabrics, developing skills in pattern drawing, 2D CAD modeling, cutting, skiving, and stitching. This course, rooted in Made in Italy craftsmanship, offers unmatched technical expertise for a career in footwear.

• Women鈥檚 Footwear: Pumps, sandals, boots (low, knee, Oxford, Pull-up)
• Men鈥檚 Footwear: Derby, Oxford, moccasins, Chelsea boots
• Sneakers: Board-lasted (cemented) and Strobel constructions

This 15-week path is the evolution of our traditional training course, because it integrates the skills of creating patterns with many hours of sample room dedicated at discovering the secrets of stitching, the art that completes pattern making with prototyping the uppers ready to be lasted. A unique experience also on the Italian panorama of technical professional training in the footwear industry because it needs dedicated personnel, materials, and machinery.

The course begins with lasts, the analysis of proportions, and the knowledge of proportional measurements: the last is the first and most important component of a shoe. From the flattening of the last, the base shell is created to prepare the model, and finally the different pieces/patterns with all the technical details useful and necessary for prototyping.

We then start studying women鈥檚 footwear, the crowning achievement of Made in Italy manufacturing, often seen as an architectural feat in style. It then continues with the construction of men鈥檚 shoes, products where the artisanal orientation is still the main feature characterising high-end productions. The path ends with sneakers, a product that can no longer be classified as a trend, but which has become a genuine product category unto itself. Most of the time is spent between the classroom and our shoe sample room, among paper, cardboard, microfibre, leather, and fabrics, with hours dedicated to pattern drawing, cutting, and measuring, but also skiving, preparing, and stitching.

At the end of the course there will be a final exam that will test students rigorously. The Arsutoria technical diploma is highly professionalizing and internationally industry recognized therefore all students are required to demonstrate their ownership of the skills that have made 麻豆传媒映画 world-wide famous.
