100% recommend this experience - We had a great time making shoes! Communication with Haruka was great from the very beginning. She met us at the station and took us to her atelier where we were able to choose they style of shoe, leather, and other design features. And then we set to work cutting out the pieces and sewing the shoes together. Her instructions were easy to follow. We each left with a fun pair of shoes that we will cherish forever.

LOVE!!! - What a fun experience! I am so excited to have my own handmade, custom shoes! I definitely recommend this if you’re curious. There were tons of leather colors to choose from and the instructor was wonderful! You don’t need any skills to be successful with this—she’ll guide and help you. I really want to do this again next time I’m in Tokyo!

It's fun, easy, and cute! - First, there are many attractive materials in various colors and materials, It is hard to choose the fabric you like. The process was easy to understand, so once you got the hang of it, it was easy! Do what is difficult. The lunches at the nearby stores I recommended were also delicious. I really like shoes, so I want to go out again ^^ Thank you very much.

1 day shoe making experience - I was able to choose from a lot of materials and make my own, and I had a great time. The teacher was very knowledgeable and easy to understand, and I was able to make my favorite shoes smoothly despite being new to the sport. If I had the chance, I would love to go and make shoes with different designs.

One of a kind experience! - Was a fun and easy to follow experience. Loved the various options of shoes style, wide range of materials and colors to choose from. Combination and design options are endless and had a blast mixing and matching colors to adding my personal style. The instructor also collects Kimono materials so it’s perfect for making a unique souvenir to take home or as a gift. They also carry shoes sizes bigger than many Japanese retailers, so also appreciated the inclusiveness.

Exciting experience - Shoe patterns, materials and designs Taking advice from the teacher. You're free to decide. Pattern → Leather cutting → Sewing We will proceed with careful explanation If there is something you don't understand, they will give you appropriate advice I was thrilled when I put my foot in it 🤩 Your own original shoes I can make them and they are comfortable.

Creating together! - I had a wonderful time creating my first pair of shoes ever under the guidance of an amazing bilingual instructor with a great sense of humor and a lot of knowledge. The variety and quality of the material to chose from is astonishing. I am very pleased with the results of my work. Thank you Haruka-san! I'll definitely be back!
