It’s interesting to look at the internals of an LB Sheppard: they’re remarkably leather intensive. Leather inside leather inside leather. Very interesting to compare them to some of the contract shoes they made, which might have similar workmanship, but were made from minimal amounts of leather.I started work on a new watch band that I am making from some shell LWBs I found when thrifting. I felt they had issues and I decided to move forward. I removed then entire upper, removed the toe cap and then cut out large sections for the band. I will be trimming them down to the proper size. A watch is pictured to give some idea of the size they will eventually need to be.
