Very nice. Always interesting to see that there are still a few skilled, traditional shoemakers left in Europe (and outside well-known shoemaking countries like England and Italy).

Just looked it up on google-map: Skoczów and Kepice are not at all close to each other.

Nice shoes macaroni,

without seeing them in real it is difficult to judge every details, but from what I can see in the pictures they look really well done and for that price it is a bargain.
Wear them in good health.

Macaroni do you think he could copy a really well fitting pair of shoes as a sizing template for a pair of his design?

What does an insole on a handmade shoe look like before it is lasted and everything? Why does it always look like a piece of clay or something with the welt attached to it before the sole is on? DWF?
