I bought a pair of Barkers loafers from Lester Bowden's in Epsom thirty years ago nearly.I dug them out recently and my partner took them to be resoled and heeled.They returned with the shape deformed around the 'last'?They looked like moccasins.The style of loafer is no longer available.A list of certified reparir shop's would be handy.Old shoes well maintained are like old cars,you shared the mileage of your memories together and become a visual statement of your personality.Especially irking as a gift from a friend too.The 'cobbler/keycutter,home alarm expert' of today not the place for 'getting a pair of shoes mended' without destroying the aesthetic.Sorry about rant,i loved those shoes,now they look like theyve been disfigured and charged half of original shoe price for privelidge.
My deepest respect for this traditional craftsmanship 🙏🏻
One of the few ads I’ve watched all the way through. Fascinating. Skilled craftsmen at work.
Fantastic to see such skilled workers in action. Have several pairs of Barker shoes and they are first class. Excellent work guys.
I've got my third pair of Barkers shoes and I am really happy with them.
Che meraviglia!
I have Barkers flex shoes since 2004, as good as the day I bought them,
Фантастические башмаки. Если за ними следить - служат лет 10 точно
Finally got a pair. Thank you for your fine work.
Amazing shoes. My last pair lasted 14 years. Just bought a pair of monk strap ones today. Can’t wait to wear them.
Just bought my first pair of adult shoes from them. Paid an arm and a leg but seeing this video and comments makes me happy i made my purchase
Glad to see they kept a lot of the original 1880 machinery too……….
Nice video, fantastic shoes. I am really satisfied with my pair of Barkers
The best handmade shoes in the world .
Best Wishes to Barker Shoes , Northampton , Earls Barton .
My favourite shoes by far
Really satisfying video. I would like to see your work process in real life. I’m impressed!
I love my Donegal boots, thank you Barker!
Amazing craftsmanship
Ordered my first Barkers Nelson and really looking forward to them.
Thanks for the vid-very enjoyable.
Nice vidéo! This makes me want to buy a pair of Barker shoes. :)
I have a few pairs of Barker Valiant shoes. Can you do a video showing how the shoe cream should be applied to painted shoes?
Thanks.
Long may you carry on making a top British product!
