5 out of 5 starsThis is among one of my most favorite purchases of all time. I've gone through almost an entire lifetime of having to wear ill-fitting shoes. But thanks to this well-thought-out presentation, that's about to become a thing of the past. She makes the art of shoemaking approachable and fun. Can't recommend this highly enough.

5 out of 5 starsI really have enjoyed this class. It instructs you on how to make a really cool style of shoe. I think one key before starting the class is to have a really good shoe last that matches your foot. I recommend Nadia at Shoe Lasts Factory for getting a pair of lasts that actually work for your foot! https://www.etsy.com/shop/ShoeLastsFactory

5 out of 5 starsRepeat customer. The first pair was so stunning, I ordered the Addison in Black. Superb craftsmanship, rich color -- and they fit perfectly and feel like butter! Prompt delivery, and I could not be more pleased. Very highly recommend! Thank you ever so much!

5 out of 5 starsThese shoes have changed my life! I received mine several months ago and they have rapidly become my favorite pair of shoes to wear. The shoes are well-made, soft, and have the most amazing feel when you are wearing them. It almost feels like they "suck" onto your feet as you walk. I never wear socks with mine and yet my feet never get sweaty with good airflow around them - so they never end up smelling bad, either. The style is simple, minimalistic, rugged, but high-quality. Really goes with anything - to the office or with casual outfits. I can't say enough wonderful things about these shoes. I plan to purchase more pairs from this craftsman/woman. :)

5 out of 5 starsThis is one of the most comprehensive classes I’ve ever taken and leaves absolutely nothing to desire! I cannot wait to delve in to my shoe making pausing and playing the videos clicking on all of the product links and leathers from Tandy. I highly recommend this class if you are serious about learning to create your own shoes. Whitney has a style and grace about how she teaches that is incomparable!

About RileeShoes
Built with a hammer and nails...
I love to make things. Been doing so my whole life! One morning, I woke up and thought “I’m going to make shoes.”
As hard as I searched, I found no easy explanation for how it’s done. I couldn’t afford to fly across the country for a $3,000 workshop and info online was confusing.
I slowly created my process over a few years, and simplified enough where I could create a pair of shoes in one day!
Suddenly, I had the ability to imagine my dream shoes and bring them into existence.
I sold the shoes I made...Rilee Shoes was their name. My creations went all over the world, but life got busier and busier with the arrival of my third baby.
I realized, the best way to spread the delight of handmade shoes was to teach others how to make them.
Modern Shoemaking was born-a complete, step by step class where you can learn from the comfort of home.
My students now send me pictures of their shoe wardrobes growing by the day. The satisfaction they feel in making shoes brings a smile to my face daily.

Frequently asked questions
What sets handcrafted shoes apart?
Machines that mass produce shoes are surprisingly limited in their capabilities.
Factories are restricted to using plastics and fabrics, or highly processed leathers.
Leather is an organic material, so no piece is identical.
Shoe factories often erase all that makes leather such a delightful material, to ensure uniformity for worldwide distribution.
Texture is erased, and replaced with heavy paint. It is stretched paper-thin and cut into many small patterns to reduce costs.
A shoemaker like myself has the luxury and freedom to craft shoes using the finest leathers. The pristine, whole cut shoes will never be found on the shelves of department stores.
Anything but means shoes less than perfection.
