The welt is that narrow strip of brown leather that I’ve sewn onto the boots by hand. The process of sewing on the welt is called inseaming, and it’s my favorite part of the boot making process. Well… inseaming and skiving a really complicated design. Those are my favorite things. Oh, and drawing designs and making the patterns for it. Also when the customer pulls on the boots and their heel thunks into the boot and they fit properly. That’s definitely my favorite thing.
