Lesson #1 never ever get on the bad side of anyone who is involved in the process of making your shoes!!! You be nice as pie to everyone and anyone with the company, shoe mistress at your company, everyone that has a hand with your shoes! Don't learn this lesson the hard way! Be nice and considerate and always tell them how much you appreciate all the hard work!!

I love how hard grishkos are. Before my hard shank freed of London’s lasted ONE day. I didn’t bend them, only did releves to break them in. And my hard Russian pointe rubins would last 2 weeks.
