Even among the Saigonese, not many people know of an old artisan who has witnessed Saigon's ups and downs. He is shoemaker Trịnh Ngọc. Even though he is nearly 90 years old, but he still makes artists, businessmen and even foreign tourists come to him.
Mr. Trịnh Ngọc (born 1931 in Bạc Liêu) came to this career when he lived abroad. When he was a 14 year-old boy, he worked in a shoe shop in Cambodia. As he came into contact with shoes everyday, he fell in love with them. When he made a fabulous pair of shoes for himself for the first time, he realized his intense love with them.
After 6 years of secret learning, he became a skillful shoemaker. He opened his own workshop that became famous in the region. But when the king of Cambodia invited him to make shoes for the royal family members, his reputation spreaded worldwide.
In 1975, he returned to Vietnam. For his name, many places sent him job offers. In 1992, he retired and opened his workshop in No. 50-2, Lý Chính Thắng steet, District 3. Even though a small one, his workshop attracted countless people, not only to make shoes, but also to meet a magnificent soul and to see the heart and the love of an artisan. According to him, mass-produced shoes are just products, but carefully handmade shoes are works. I truly admire him and his devotions for this life, his contributions for this elegant Saigon.
