There are no shoes (or suits) fully handmade without the aid of machines produced today. JeffreyD made a suit like that as an experiment and it wouldn't even be profitable for a top Italian or Savile row tailor

It can be done. A lot of high end leather goods are completely handstitched. And honestly, some not so expensive ones as well. I think that the real issue is that there is no point in doing some things without the aid of machines.
