Just had an interesting conversation with Yuki Matsuda, the head of Yuketen at a Yuketen popup here in New York. He thinks it's unlikely they'll be able to make shoes how they do currently in five years time as everyone making shoes by hand, particularly moccasins, in the U.S. is so old.l and nobody is interested in learning the trade. Sad. Very sad.
In happier news, I got these beautiful, slipper like comfort Angler Moc's. The Cortina sole is just wonderful. They gave me some freebies for being a return Monitaly/Yuketen customer which is nice too. Such a nice company to deal with.
