I am making some uppers for my clogs using some fairly thick veg tan leather. Because the leather is thick and difficult to shape I am wet moulding it to my clog shoe last, by soaking it in water to make it supple, and then stretching it over the last using my lasting pliers, and nailing it down. It is then left to dry naturally, and then I cut it to shape.
