Hello to anyone interested in small time handmade shoes.

Jeremy Bowen: I started a shoe making business from scratch back in 1980, self taught. It's been great, lots of customers became friends especially those with special needs. Saddly recently I had to give this up due to a growing sensitivity to one of the glues. So now I'm teaching myself to make bags, lots of colour with a high finish. Will I succeed? I hope so. We live beside the sea in a small town in Northland NZ. It's quiet, peaceful and away from the crowds except for summer. That's me there's a lot more but will leave that till later.
