Hand Made Ladies Shoes.
In a time when it is almost impossible to find any footwear that is not made in China, I have come across a guy who still believes in hand made craftsmanship.
He makes shoes on a made to order basis. With a skill that has been honed over several decades, he sources his leathers from Italy as well as locally. His carefully stocked selection of leathers enables him to offer his customers a large range of styles and colors to choose from.
There are only a handful of these skilled workers remaining that are prepared to ignore the commercial pressures of globalisation, but he continues to defy trends by turning out hand crafted shoe wear for his customers, many who have been buying from him for years.
His clientele tell him that the problem is not getting nice shoes but is their feet. He delivers a shoe that not only looks good but is comfortable for those who have sensitive feet.
If you are around the Melbourne area, call by his stall on the weekend and take a peek.
