The Rieker Shoes are made on forms called (lasts). They are fundamental to the manufacturing process as they dictate the exact size, shape and fit of the shoe made upon them.   

A fully developed human foot remains the same shape throughout adulthood, lasts shapes continuously change in accordance with current fashion trends. For example, slight changes of toe shape, dependent on the design of the shoe, requires a new last.

Once the shapes are down on paper, the Pattern Cutter produces a blue print which serves as a basis for the rest of the Patterns for that style. A single shoe can have up to 50 parts and it is the Pattern Cutters responsibility to make sure these parts fit.

A sample is produced next so that it can be fit tested and style tested. This is important to ensure that the product is commercial in the current marketplace.
