I enquire only because in Europe we don't get to hear about US based shoemakers and of course quality of work and skills vary greatly in different parts of Europe but a previous post implied that many European trained craftsmen have a bad reputation.I would think the traditions of the trade have broader base in say UK France Italy perhaps and a lot of the well regarded makers come from these countries indeed they often travel to the US and other countries We should take all craftsmen at face value but sometimes we can get influenced without realising.
Is European or European trained looked on as good or bad in US regards shoemaking quality or ability.
