Cutting & upper preparation

Review panel shape, material direction and matching parts for the approved style.

What this stage covers

Details to confirm

Pattern and panel shape matched to the approved style.
Left and right parts, colour consistency and direction of textured materials.
Panel edges and alignment allowances before stitching.

Cutting and component preparation
Patterns translate the selected shoe shape into individual components. Cutting must account for material direction, visible surface defects and matching parts for the left and right shoe. Marking and preparation help later seams and details align. The cutting method and any edge treatment depend on the material and style; they are confirmed for the order.
Points to review
- Component shape and orientation
- Left/right matching and visible defects
