I saw it for the first time on Instagram and was shocked!

A shoe workshop? Can you make shoes in about 5 hours? Can you customize them using different leathers? I was surprised to learn that they even do repairs!

I had always dreamed of becoming a shoemaker, so I was determined to become a certified instructor, and immediately bought three pairs of shoes and had them made!

I was so impressed with the finished product. So cute!!

I would be happy if I could convey the excitement and thrill of my first ever Loper shoes to leather lovers and fashion enthusiasts in Kagoshima.

Workshops currently being held

Here is the upcoming schedule. Reservations are on a first-come, first-served basis.

If there are no workshops held near you, we also accept inquiries about on-site workshops. Please also use the inquiry form to register for notifications when seats become available.

More than 90% of the shoes you see every day are manufactured using adhesives.
Many of the adhesives used are solvent-based.

They volatilize as they bond, producing toxic fumes.

That's why shoe factories require ventilation equipment.
However, complete exhaust is not possible.

Normally, shoemaking requires expensive equipment and skilled techniques.

We aim to create high-quality products that incorporate local characteristics and use local materials, without mass production.

By creating a system where people can purchase these products from trusted sources, we aim to build a cycle where both users and makers can become prosperous and happy.
