Shoe Design School

Shoe Design School & Outdoor Product Design

Shoe Design SchoolDo you want to be a shoe designer or work for an outdoor products company?  There is now a college program exclusively for outdoor gear design and development,  including shoe design school courses.

The first hands-on college degree program in Outdoor Product Design and Development is deep into its third year at Utah State University in Logan, Utah. This one-of-a-kind program is training our future designers, techies, and gear-heads for successful careers in the outdoor industry. According to Chase Anderson, the Development officer at the university, “We already have students interning for Patagonia, Helly Hansen, Browning, Klim, Columbia Sportswear, Altra Footwear, and many others.”

Sneaker Factory.net is proud to donate our books How Shoes are Made, How to Start Your Own Shoe Company and the Shoe Material Design Guide to be a part of the school’s design library.  We hope the shoe design students and professors will find our books a valuable resource.  Let us know if could use our materials for your shoe design classes.
