Sample Making & Development
 
Here is a step-by-step guide to footwear sample making and development:

- Last Making: A three-dimensional mold replicating the shape and dimensions of a human foot, serving us as the foundation for shoe construction.
- Pattern Making: Translating design concepts into practical templates that ensure consistency and quality in footwear production.
- Components Design: Creating detailed plans and specifications for each part of the shoe, balancing aesthetics, functionality, and manufacturing feasibility.
- Prototyping: An iterative process that allows for refinement of the design, addressing any issues, and ultimately producing a high-quality product.
- Fit Testing: Ensuring the final product aligns with both design specifications and the comfort expectations of the target market.
- Sample Refinement/Final Sample: Making necessary adjustments to improve fit, comfort, aesthetics, and overall quality, serving as the reference model for production.
 
At our company, we work with the best last makers, pattern makers, and manufacturers to create high-quality and well-fitting footwear.
