I have designed the courses to allow you to use any last you have! But if you specifically want to use the same last/heel combo I use, be sure to order through my Supply Shop Pre-Orders. Or in some cases you will be given the opportunity to shop course-specific kits! All required tools and materials will be mentioned during the course introduction, but it is basically: a knife, scissors, lasting pliers, hammer, and access to a sewing machine. As for materials: upper leather/fabric, contact cement, leather for insoles/outsoles, and shanks.
