Most people nowadays wear sneakers(运动鞋), leather shoes or boots. But in ancient China, many people made their own cloth shoes.
Tangchang, a town in Sichuan Province, is quite famous for its cloth shoes. The town has 700 years of shoe-making history. Tangchang cloth shoes are made from natural materials such as flour(面粉), cotton, cloth and wool which are more comfortable than those with plastic soles(鞋底) in the market and they are easy to walk in and they don't get wet easily.
But the process of making cloth shoes is not easy. Growing up in Tangchang, Lai Shufang is a master of making cloth shoes. She has been making shoes for over 40 years. She said that there are 32 steps that go into the production of the shoes. The most important step is making the soles. Layers(层) of white cloth are glued together with paste(面糊) made from flour.
"To make the proper paste, we have to keep the hot water at an exact temperature of 85℃. If it's too low or too high, the paste will fail," Lai said. After this, the layered cloth is beaten again and again until it is tight enough to make soles, as well as the upper parts of the shoes.
Over the time, sneakers began to become more popular among consumers(消费者). Fewer and fewer people choose cloth shoes. To make a living and help the cultural heritage(遗产) alive, Lai and her co-workers added Shu embroidery(刺绣) to make the shoes more fashionable. They now sell about 10,000 pairs of shoes each year, both online and in their store.
