SHOES FOR WOMEN

Shoemaking is one of the most ancient crafts, but for centuries its methods remained essentially unchanged.

Until the mid-nineteenth century, shoemakers worldwide followed practically the same production methods as those of the ancient Egyptian shoemakers who were working when the pyramids were being built.

The first shoes were sandals, made of a piece of leather, wood or braided grass and were usually fastened to the foot with thongs.  Modern women's shoes, especially fashion shoes, still generally follow this approach, although the modern materials are quite different.

In a modern shoe factory, almost the entire process is done by machinery.

The main difference in modern women's shoes over the shoes of the ancients is the use of a heel to raise the back end of the shoe so that the shoe helps to provide a sensual shape to the woman's legs and body.

The most important aspect of the shoemaking process is the design which, in modern women's shoes, has to especially focus on the appearance, weight and strength of all the materials used in the shoe.  In this respect, the design of women's shoes is a science and an art in its own right.

The brief articles on this page provide information on women's shoes in Australia from various manufacturers' and retailers' point of view.
