For those who live in Toronto, or those visiting,
You'll have a wonderful time visiting the shoe museum.

This is a treat in our city to see a museum dedicated entirely to shoes.
Mens and Womens shoes; the history of shoes, shoes from around the world, etc.
A place for the entire family to enjoy.

I was just on the phone with Curator/Administrator Sarah,
about Mens Bespoke Shoemakers in Toronto.
At this point in time, neither one of us could come up with a company that does mens bespoke in Toronto, but the quest has begun.

Apparently there is interest from both men and women in our city of 3 million,
and country of over 30 million.
Toronto could be prime territory for someone to start up here.

In any case, I thought I would pass along the museum information.
I have been to the museum myself, and highly reccommend the visit.
