Freed of London Factory Tour

We visited the Freed of London Factory today. Freed of London makes ballet and theatrical shoes. http://www.freedoflondon.com

After a long tube then train ride to the Freed of London Factory, we met with Daniel to get an overview of Freed of London. We got to tour the pointe shoe and the theatrical shoe sides of the factory with the Production Managers, Jerry and Gary.



It was quite a treat to see the entire process of making pointe shoes and theatrical shoes. The Freed of London factory has very specialized and talented makers who are skilled in all aspects of making shoes.

Huge thanks to Daniel at Freed of London for arranging the tour!

*More pictures and information to come. Just wanted to get something up on the blog about today's site visit.
