When you book your 5-day Shoe workshop we'll ask you to tell us which style you'd like to make. Your ideas can be very simple - to begin with at least! We spend the first day of your workshop editing and refining your design, (this basically means making a wonderful mess with all our lovely leathers).
Desert boots are ankle boots with 2 or 3 lace holes.
Desert boots (like derby shoes and dress boots) are characterised by side the panels (quarters) which sit over the forepart (vamp) of the shoe.
If you google search 'Desert boots' you'll be rewarded with lots of inspirational examples! Our INSTAGRAM is also a great place to look for examples.
