I searched high and low for books to use for my classes and when I found these books I almost cried! These books are packed with critical information and images to help you understand the process! Highly recommend!

Great value if you are starting a shoe business or a footwear designer. In depth review of all aspects of modern shoemaking. Technical details and real-life examples of working as a designer or product manager. Diagrams clearly show how materials are used inside and outside of many different shoe types including Nike and Vans. Learn how to make detailed material specifications and how to read a costing sheet. I have these on my desk and refer to them daily. Highly recommend.
Mr. Osokoya –
I have purchased all of these books, and they are a wealth of insight and information. Furthermore, I have been able to email Wade and received helpful responses from him. Really recommended.

Great materials to build a foundation of skills
I bought the Pro Pack and have been learning step-by-step how to get my brand launched on the business end, designs together on the creative end, and now getting my samples made. Huge time savings to have all this information in one place. I could not have gotten this far without the information in these books. Every detail is covered. Great materials to build a foundation of skills.

This is my holiday gift to myself! I am working my way through the ebooks and can’t wait for the textbooks to arrive. They will be a valuable addition to my resource library. The information is very well put together, comprehensive, and easy to understand. Wade and team, you are appreciated for the work you put into them.
