Every pair of shoes I make is a custom-made pair for each individual client. The production period takes between 40 to 60 days, and the price ranges from $2,500 to $4,500 USD.

I've been selling as well as repairing shoes for just over four decades. This, seems to me, like the ultimate in 100% handmade footwear craftsmanship. You, sir, are a master keeping the art of handmade footwear alive in an age of poorly made footwear. I extend my highest compliments to you.

@@ccculture9681 A lot of bootmakers historically suffer from extremely high rates of cancer (especially in the nasal passages and throat) because of the chemical benzene that was used in glues, solvents, polishes, etc that they are exposed to on a daily basis. In North America, this has largely been solved by the use of safer chemicals, respirators, and engineering controls like forced ventilation. And because Terry is in a highly developed country like South Korea, he’s probably safe. But, in many other countries around the world bootmakers continue to use benzene-containing materials and suffer very unfortunate consequences because of it.
