Aiming to bring a touch of colour and fun to the rowing world we all love so much!

About me...

So this is me, Lis Harden, roving rower originally from Lyme Regis, sometimes Bridport, and with sojourns at a number of others along the way.


Footcuffs started a few years ago, when I was asked by a friend to make something to keep their feet firmly on the stretcher whilst rowing a gig. I'm a seamstress by trade, so got a bit creative with the 25mm webbing, and then, as a giggle, embroidered his name on it in chain stitch - like your mum used to on your PE bag.


A couple of boys in his boat saw it and wanted one too. Then they became colourful. After that came the unicorns. Then the sparkle. And it all has kind of gone from there...


This website shows what I make at the moment but I'm always up for a challenge and love designing practical things so if you can't find it here and you've got an idea - drop me a line anyway!
