About This Product
Footwear uppers are stretched over the shoe last during making, and they are pressed and flexed by the foot during wear. If the upper material is weak or stretches unevenly, it may crack. A lasto-meter test is used to check upper leather for these faults before it goes into footwear, so that weak or uneven material can be found early and its suitability for footwear can be judged. Schools, colleges and distributors in Ghana, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Senegal, Venezuela and Liberia can source the Lasto-Meter from School Lab Equipment India.
