‘We are a dying skillset’: Just 28 cobblers left to mend the nation’s shoes

I hate shoes that can’t be fixed. When I worked in an office I always bought shoes that could be repaired, some of which I still have. I even managed to find some walking shoes that can be resoled, but my very expensive Dubarry sailing boots can’t have their soles replaced (or even reattached) even though the uppers are fine. No more of those!
