As one of the traditional handicrafts, tiger head shoes are a kind of children's shoes, which are named after the toe of the tiger head. Wearing tiger head shoes is a childhood memory shared by many people in Henan.
A baby of about one year old, wearing tiger head shoes, toddler, was a very common picture in Henan. In addition to practical functions, tiger head shoes have been given a better vision since ancient times: the tiger of the king of beasts can drive away evil spirits, and the children who pass through the tiger head shoes are far from disaster, peace and health. Xu Ruqin, 74, is a very old-fashioned old lady who eats her own processed noodles, cooks in a pot, refuses to use her mobile phone, and refuses to live in a city building.
Xu Ruqin didn't have time to sit in the sun like the other old villagers. She was more willing to pick up the needlework and make a pair of tiger head shoes as long as she was free. This is the craft she has been observing for fifty or sixty years.
Xu Ruqin was wearing a dark blue coat, a silver-haired hair, a spirited, walking fast, not talking to people when he greeted him, laughing at the corners of his mouth, his eyes smashing into a slit, and even his eyebrows were smiling. This is the old man who is comfortable and contented in his later life.
She took us to our home. This is a very common farmhouse in the village of Zhoukou Lulu. There are two simple tile houses. There is a row of newly harvested corn in front of the door. Several chickens in the chicken cage are screaming. The field next to it is planted with green vegetables. There is no wall in the yard, and it can be seen that the owner is not guarded against the outside world. In the eyes of outsiders, this yard is too simple, but Xu Ruqin feels that it is much more comfortable than the buildings in the city. She is also in this yard, she has been a tiger head shoe for many years.
The craft of making shoes was learned by Xu Ruqin during his teenage years. That is the age when a young wife can make shoes. No one wants to teach. She sat next to her mother and watched her mother sew one by one. After a long time, I will find out if I am groping myself.
The original purpose was very simple. The tiger head shoes were just for the children to wear. But then, no one wears them. She is still willing to do it. Sometimes it is a whole day. "If you are free, you will want to do it. If you don't do it, don't do it. , my heart is empty, scratching very much." She squinted and said with a smile.
By the idea of ​​"want to do", she became Songhe Town, Luyi County, Zhoukou City. This place has been the place where tiger head shoes are traditional and the best in craftsmanship. A pair of tiger head shoes are mainly composed of soles, uppers and toe caps. The workmanship is complicated and complicated, and it can be completed through dozens of processes such as cutting, pasting, inserting, stabbing and sewing.
袼褙 - A thick piece made of coarse cloth and paste is the main material of the sole. In order to keep the sole warm and soft, a layer of sacks is specially added between the two layers of cloth. When making the sole, you need just 3 layers of enamel, and a layer of white cloth on the outside. The number of cockroaches can't be much, and it can't be less. If you wear more, it will be heavy. If you are less, it will be easy to cripple.
The sole is also a technical activity, the strength of the stitch is just right, it is comfortable to wear, it can't be tight, and it can't be loose; the distance between the stitches is even, and the sole can look good. These are all based on experience.
The toe with a tiger head pattern looks small, but it is the most time consuming. Different parts of the tiger head need to use different color lines, embroider one by one, and the difference will not look good. If the color of the line is not well matched, it will "paint the tiger is not a counter-dog."
For Xu Ruqin, it takes four days to make a pair of tiger head shoes. It takes at least two days to make a tiger head. "When you sit there, you don't have a day. A pair of shoes are coming down, not a thousand needles," she said.
