Shoe Design Course
From concepts to Creation
Our Fashion Shoe Design Course will provide technical, design, and crafting skills to create the most unique pair of shoes. Blending technical drawing, pattern making, and shoe making techniques, you will get the sensitivity and vision to create and bring to life a perfectly conceived shoe collection.
The course

This comprehensive program covers technical shoe drawing, trend research, different types of shoe construction (loafer, derby, décolleté, boot, sandal), pattern making, and mastering the use of design software tools, blending creativity and technical expertise. This intensive design path will be paired with strong foundations in shoe making techniques that will unlock your creativity, allowing you to experiment new ideas directly on your products.

Final collection
In the final capsule collection project, students of our shoe design course will apply their skills in technical shoe drawing to design and prototype an original footwear line. This project embodies the creativity and technical proficiency developed throughout the course, culminating in a professional portfolio piece.

From conception to creation, students gain a transformative experience, preparing them for a successful career in the industry as makers, artisans or designers.
