GLOSSARY: BLAKE STITCH

DEFINITION

Blake stitch is a method of making shoes. It is especially popular in Italy. In 1856 Lyman Reed Blake invented the machine to make shoes in this manner. In a Blake construction, the outer sole is directly stitched to the insole; this allows more flexibility and lighter weight.
