    These gladiator sandals are the most comfortable design and fit perfectly on your feet.

    I love the fact that everything is explained. A lot of instructional videos assume that whoever is watching knows what is happening but often it is not obvious or the viewer is inexperienced and so the video doesn't turn out to be as helpful as it could be. This one is great.

      thank you. At these sandals, we don't have many steps so i can spend time with each operation. But when i make something with many-many details, i have to make a compromise, jump over some steps and presume that the man who works with my pattern will solve some problems by himself.

    I really like your pattern! I have 5 granddaughters that love sandals! It looks like you use pre-dyed vegtan leather. If I were to dye vegtan leather, would you recommend sealing the leather so it does not stain their feet? If so, what do you recommend using?

    • @VasileandPavel
      @VasileandPavel  3 роки тому +1

      when I dye vegtan, usually I use Fiebings and I seal the leather with resolene. Dilute your resolene with water and seal the leather with 2 layers of resolene.

    • @VasileandPavel
      @VasileandPavel  2 місяці тому

      The model is unisex; I have worn this model myself, and I currently wear something very similar (they are very comfortable sandals). I would widen the straps a bit, making them 3.5cm instead of 3cm, and 20mm instead of 1.5cm.

      no, that EVA foam is resistent enough, it have 9mm and it will last 4-5 years.

      Can it be all purpose contact cement?
      And why do you think the glue I bought before once it is opened it gets hard! I see your glue container and it looks like you close it and it would be good to use next time.

      my adhesive is diluted with tholuene so I also bought tholuene. You can also use neophrenic adhesive, it have a different substance to dilute it but is as good as mine.I never used contact cement but I heared that it is a very good glue, too
